[s-cars] Ford coolant in an S6

[Vincent Frégeac]

Hi all,

I'm stuck home with an almost coolant-less S6. A hose have popped out at the
HVAC coolant temperature sensor when I was driving home.

I've only access to the local part shop. They do not have the red pentosin
but they have Ford longlife coolant, a phosphate free red stuff too. Their
mech says he regurlarly use this in VW/Audis with no problem as it's
basically the same stuff as Pentosin G001200. Any opinion or BTDT or quick
test I could do to check if it's really compatible?

I was thinking about mixing a bit of the Ford stuff with the quarter liter
of pentosin I found in an old bottle and heat the stuff to see if it stays
stable but I'm not sure it's representative of long term behavior of the
mix.
