Default Replacement Fluids

Hey all, I have a 98 a4 quattro and am looking to replace my coolant, its lookin a little dirty these days. Was lookin for some advice on what I should purchase in terms of antifreeze coolant. Thanks in advance.

well if it looks really dirty I would buy some radiator flush... make sure you have some sort of manual to tell you the procedures
Theres a very anoying bleed sequence that you have to do on the 1.8Ts and I know that the 2.8s are even more anoying because you have to bleed the water pump also

You will need the pink stuff - G12, which can be purchased at an audi or VW dealership. Germanautoparts.com also sells it.
