It's a tricky one, it's why I went genuine as I couldn't be sure with other manufacturers specs on fluids. 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.

VW Volkswagen Original G13 Coolant offers excellent heat transfer properties, effectively dissipating heat from the engine, which is essential for preventing overheating and maintaining engine efficiency.Major environmental factor: the production of glycerin is far less destructive to the environment than glycol. Have read posts by experienced VAG tech stating is better to replace G12 versions with G13 due to its better properties.

Quite apart from the benefits of protection against freezing, the G13 is also outstanding when it comes to cooling, and it shields against corrosion and chalk deposits.

The introduction of Silicate additives makes G13 ideal for prolonged use in all modern radiators, especially those derived from aluminium, cast iron, and magnesium alloys. It contains substances that form a protective coating against corrosion, helping to prevent foaming and neutralise ‘hard’ water ie water with a high mineral content. Its main purpose, in summer, is to maintain the engine temperature below 100°C to prevent it from overheating and, in winter, to serve as antifreeze. Deutscheparts is in no way connected, endorsed or afiliated with any car manufacturers on any of our sales channels.An excessive proportion of coolant additive (more than 60 per cent) can result in bursting pipes and the engine boiling, while an insufficient amount (less than 40 per cent) can cause cracks in the cylinder block/head or in the cooling system through expansion of the coolant. However, we recommend thoroughly flushing your cooling system when upgrading from a different type of coolant.

febi manufacturing competency allows it to create a diverse range of high quality products, including niche parts which are often perceived as dealer-only. What are the marked enhancements in quality in comparison to its forerunners G11, G12, G12+ and G12++? However, it's essential to ensure compatibility with your specific VW or Audi model, as some older models may require different coolant specifications.It also doesn't excuse the fact that Audi's own manual states that the car comes with "glycol-based G13", when G13 isn't even glycol based in the first place.
