So for $15 every two or three years you're going to use stuff for a hot
water boiler instead of stuff the car's manufacturer specifically
recommends for as important a part of his product as the cooling system?
Your boiler probably doesn't have any aluminum parts anyway.  It's saving
the aluminum that makes Audi specify its coolant.
