[V8] Audi antifreeze, peak or prestone or?

[Paul Jager]

the simple answer is just quality of water
pure water doesn't conduct.
PEAK is probably using a standard water source to mix out (ie not distilled)
So this guy needs to compare pre-mix vs pre-mix
kinda goofy esp to haul off on PEAK. Cause joe blow using dexcool and junky 
well water for example may have a worse deal than PEAK.

so if you mix your own, filter it or use a TDS meter to check.
Our lake water here is so pure, not only is it drinkable straight-up, it's 
great on engines. TDS is insanely low.

Very important -- especially with regard to our V8s. Thomas Pollock shared
this with the Urq list and I think this is mighty interesting.

I hardly drive the 83 urq but from my records 30 months ago I must have
drained out 2 quarts and put in 2 quarts of new mixed 50% with distilled
water.    Antifreeze that is available locally is PEAK or Prestone.   I did
purchase some antifreeze from Volvo for a Volvo, or maybe Audi sells a few
types of antifreeze by now.   I certainly don't mind spending an extra $20
for the best.   What should i put into my WX engine?   I also have a 100hp
WE powered coupe.
