VW Volkswagen Original G13 Coolant Audi (Succesor Of G12++)

Product Information

I know that Audi's factory fill coolant is supposedly lifetime, but I need to top off my coolant tank and my manual states that it was factory filled with G13. Its special composition raises the water’s boiling point to 135C (275F) while preventing evaporation, and lowers the freezing point to -40C (-40F) while maintaining a constant pH value. You will discover the significant advantages of this latest specification in explicit detail by reading on.

I lost a lot of coolant doing my clutch job, since there are coolant lines that go to the gearbox in my car.

I'm about to do a cam-belt and coolant pump on my 2010 TT TDI so I've been looking into what coolant to use as I'm intending to replace rather than catch and refill. I was just curious to find out that components (the header tank) on my 6 month old Q3 are older than the same component on my wife's 1 year old A1.

Throughout the years their antifreeze specification has evolved, with the latest (G13) established in 2013.

Deutscheparts is in no way connected, endorsed or afiliated with any car manufacturers on any of our sales channels. What I found odd was that my wife's A1 which is 7 months older than my Q3 specifies G13, whereas my newer Q3 is G12. I understand that you mustn't mix G12/13 with other types of coolant because of the phosphates, etc.Looking at the Pentosin data sheets: Pentosin SF (pink) crosses to G12, Pentosin E (violet) crosses to G13.

Genuine G12evo (new version of G13) coolant additives protect individual engine components, safeguarding the engine’s long service life. This coolant uses additives including a specific technology, pink/purple color, this coolant has the same cooling and antifreeze performance as G12++ in particular. But I'm also not sure how our cars (mine is a 2016) still use the old G12 coolant when G13 has been around since 2008. If you have any doubts, we recommend that you read your vehicle’s manual carefully or seek the advice of a professional. Glad I drained the whole thing, can I please get a confirmation G12 is the correct coolant to refill the empty system with?Just an aside, some of the other reviewers suggest this needs to be diluted but when I checked on my bottle it said it was ready-mixed and also contacted the seller who confirmed it was ready to use. Bearing similar exceptional cooling and antifreeze performances as G12++, the G13 boasts a vivid purple/violet colour. One other thing about Pentofrost, you can mix colors and it will not harm the car according to the company that makes it. PRINZ Automotive tells you all the secrets of G13 coolant, which is essential for the proper functioning of the engine. Have read posts by experienced VAG tech stating is better to replace G12 versions with G13 due to its better properties.

Major environmental factor: the production of glycerin is far less destructive to the environment than glycol.

Standard tap water varies in pH, mineral, and chemical content and may damage your new antifreeze and cooling system. g. some BMW M3 vehicles), please check the specification and select the correct Brake Disc(s) and Quantity. It actually states G12++, as I assume it was updated to replace the OEM filled Glysantin G30 coolant with G12++ because of the addition of silicate. Audi's TSB says use G12 evo for service in MY19+ cars; use G13 for service in pre-MY19 cars (unless there were any MY18 e-trons; e-tron is G12 evo only). It is estimated that the manufacturing of G13 produces 11 % lower CO2 emissions than antifreeze with glycol.
