Italian term or phrase: turafalle (cf phrase)
Non tutti i fluidi refrigeranti reperibili in commercio sono adatti alla grande varietà dei materiali di un circuito di raffreddamento, in particolare quelli non “di marca”. L’utilizzo poi di acqua “pura”, come pure dei cosiddetti “lavamotore” o peggio dei “turafalle” indiscutibilmente può portare allo stato di corrosione completa alcune parti metalliche della pompa.

liquide d'étanchéité


Explanation:
littéralement "bouche-trous", je pense qu'il s'agit d'un liquide d'étanchéité dont la circulation dans le circuit a pour fonction de colmater, de l'intérieur, les éventuelles fissures...

liquide de colmatage


Explanation:
Autre possibilité.
Définition d'Agnès correcte. J'ajouterai que ce "turafalle" est aussi employé pour les voies d'eau des navires.
D'après les sites visualisés, il s'agit d'une solution provisoire : ce "bouche-quelque chose" en exprime bien l'idée.

J\'avais trouvé précedemment sur Google la définition suivante de \"turafalle\" : liquido sigillante per radiatori (detto anche \"turafalle\").
Voir confirmation de l\'existence de ce liquide de colmatage dans le domaine de référence dans le site canadien :
www.napaonlinecanada.com/nap/Client/fr/Napa-Online/guidecon...
On y parle de \"liquide de colmatage pour radiateur\" : quelle coincidence!
Et fait partie des produits à détenir en cas de panne.
