Radiator Coolant Question
 
I need educating on the anti-freeze requirements. What/where to buy? Thanks.

G12 is the type of coolant. Audi/VW dealer. I'm sure there are universal coolants you could buy but I don't know.

Are you loosing coolant?

No. I just think my concentration is weak. Sometime ago a hose busted, lost some coolant and replaced it with straight water.

Don't mix G12 with green stuff. It will gel the system.

Roger that.

Do the G12 if you adding.. if your flushing you can do G12, Peak Global Lifetime (same fomulation), or Zerex G05. Dexcool is prolly not good, and anything with Silica is bad.

You can order G-12 from www.blauparts.com.

The pink is what the car came with purple is the latest updated version pink or purple will work. If it's not pink or purple flush the system with plenty of water to get all that crap out.
