[s-cars] Engine Coolant Flushing Procedure when switching to G12

[Tom Green]

Harold is going to be Kool with the neon purple coolant. (pun intended)
You can get G12+ at the VW dealer or pap-parts.com and worldimpex.com
sell online.

Audi must have some G12 stock they still need to move before  
declaring it
obsolete.  Or the Audi engineers are still gnashing their teeth over  
some
obscure long-term corrosion protection issue that they will need 10  
years
to decide.  Those boys are thorough.
