 Any BTDT with this DIY issue?  Flush techniques? Where to buy?

Hmmm.....95.5????....Yes, from what i can remember...Audi/VW was messing
around with 3 types of Antifreeze...the regular green, (up to early 95)
stuff, then the G11 from late 95 to 97 (blue in color).
Then in late 97 came out with the G12(pink/red). The latest and best( i
guess) is the G12. However, in order for u to use this stuff u need to FULLY
flush your whole system and make sure its spotless before u use the
G12.....Or u can use the same stuff u car came with from the factory....If
the green stuff was used...then Ur lucky is gonna be cheap....If u need to
use the G11 or G12, is gonna cost ya....$23 for a gallon of G12...
