Warning!
All new engines are filled with coolant additive G 12
Plus conforming to TL "VW 774 F" (color purple). G 12
is compatible with previous coolant additives G 11 and
G 12 (red)! Make sure that only G 12 is refilled. due to
its positive characteristics.
G 12 purple (conforming to TL "VW 774 F" ) is
compatible with previous coolant additives G 11 and G
12 red!
Note:
G 12 Plus is suitable as a filled-for-life filling for cast iron
and all-aluminum engines and gives optimum protection
against freeze. corrosion damage. scaling and over-
heating.
G 12 Plus raises boiling point to 275 F (135 C) and
provides for better heat disipation
coolant concentration must be at least 40 % (freeze
protection to -13 F ( -25 C)) and should never exceed 60
% (freeze protection to -40 F (- 40 C) otherwise freeze
protection will be reduced and cooling effect will also be
reduced.
Freeze protection must be ensured to approximately -13 F
( -25 C)
Checking freeze protection and adding coolant
additive if necessary
