RE: <Audi> mixing antifreeze types

["Avi Meron" <avi@cosmoslink.net>]

I have called Texaco about this issue, and this was their answer:
"we do not recommend mixing, but if you mix (the various coolants), you will
not hurt anything, but you will reduce the performance level of the Texaco
coolant" end quote........
go figure your own.....from the above....
