Hi guys, I'm really sorry if this has been covered (with the minefield that is the coolant question, I'm sure it has been!) and if it has please tell me where and I'll have a look but after a search I couldnt see it covered for my specific model........I am, however, a pc idiot so may have missed it!! Embarassed

Anyway, long story short, I am planning on replacing the coolant tomorrow (I've read all about fully flushing it etc...) and have read conflicting advice on which coolant to use? Some say, 100%, to use ONLY G12 and other claim any "pink" coolant would be ok?

So, can any of you long standing Audi folks tell me which is true??!! I am happy to pay extra for the correct stuff but if cheaper stuff works then I'll get that. Thanks in advance.

Andi

I always use G12 ++ (I think we're up to now) - not worth the compromise in my opinion.
