anti freeze

[Dis00]

as you are all aware we are goona have cold winter and i'm trying to be prepared this year as 2 years ago a broke my cylinder head because of not using any anti freeze (stupid i know)

anyway my question is what kind of anit freeze do vw dealers put in the mk4 as i bought some but its blue and the one in my car is pink and ive been told not to mix them

cheers Deano

does it not say in the owners manual or try phoning VW, can't see why they would not tell you.

stick with the pink stuff. its not expensive from vw and is the right stuff.

[Dis00]

where can i get the pink stuff from and any ideas whats its called

[...joe]

you get it from vw thenmselves, its called something daft like q4 or something but just go to the parts desk and ask for "pink anti-freeze" they'll know what your on about, its normally on a shelf behind the parts desk anyway!

It's called G12+ they did G12 which I think was purple and now G12+ which is pink and will mix with all other types of antifreeze. Local VAG dealer or ECP or GSF do it.
