Ya, I noticed the red coolant too, but like Mike says, there are plenty of 
red coolants out on the market that work well, I think I used a Red Prestone 
once, not sure exactly what's in that car now.

There's some phosphate and silicone free (supposedly VAG safe) stuff Prestone 
has sold for a number of years now that is also red in color, but not "the 
red coolant" as found in new Audis. I have been using it for years in my 5ktq 
with no (apparent) ill effects and know of others who have as well. Javad may 
know what they're using since he worked for them in the past.
