My mechanic basically said any coolant made for aluminum block engines
will work fine. Most coolant today which says 'protection for today's
aluminum parts' or similiar should work just fine. Just be regular about
changes; about once a year. It seems all these gasket problems people have
are not consistent. People have these problems regardless of the type,
whether it's vw's or not. Just use stuff made for aluminum block engines
and components regardless if it is pink, blue, green, or chartreuse.


Any opinions???
