Please I need recommendations for coolant to buy for 2006 Toyota Yaris

also can I use ordinary tap water to refill the radiator cos the manual discourages that.

you wrong

tap water is not better than coolant in Nigeria. While water can be used for temporary emergencies, using it full-time is dangerous. Coolants are specifically formulated to prevent overheating, resist boiling in extreme Nigerian heat, and protect your engine components from rust and corrosion.

Engines aren't made of metals. Water oxidize, thereby rusting the metals.
