I believe the red is long life (five year change interval) and blue is two year interval. Mixing the two still protects from freezing, but makes it a two year coolant! Stick with Zerex. I use the G-05 now but also used Dexcool for about ten years.

Did I miss the memo? Is vw coolant now red instead of blue? Can they be mixed?

Thanks Jeff =
