Acceptable coolants are made (in the USA) in orange (Dexcool, or Carboxyl based inhibitor - Saab factory fill since 2002), red (Carboxyl based inhibitor plus nitrite anti-cavitation additive - designed for heavy duty diesel engines with wet-sleeve cylinder liners), blue (BASF G48 sebacic acid plus silicate based inhibitor - Saab factory fill from sometime in the 1980s through 2001), and yellow (BASF G-05, or Mercedes Benz coolant - similar to G-48 but with a little higher concentration of silicate). Chances are your Opel supplied coolant is orange Dexcool.
Best plan is to stick with whatever color (Blue or Orange) came with the car. Yellow and blue are interchangeable.
