you know i have had a coolant leak since i've had the car (about 6 months or so). the first time i was low on coolant i went to the vw dealer but the service department was closed. the salesman said coolant is coolant. so i've been putting coolant in there since then. i use the stuff that is already mixed. when i first started using it i noticed the pink coolant already in there but didn't pay any attention to it. even though i pour the totally different stuff in there the coolant still stays pink. on vwvortex i read something like if you use non-g12 coolant make sure it is approved for aluminum radiators or somthing like that. i've never really read a coolant bottle before so i don't know. so far i haven't had any problems. maybe i'll just break down and get that coolant leak fixed and use g12 for now on they already quoted me a price on fixing the leak and it was mad expensive and its not even leaking that bad. thats why i haven't gotten it fixed yet.

yea those stealerships and thier damn prices, if we get together some time we'll drain and fill your car with the right shit and slap some damn chewing gum on the leak and it'll be all good. the fact that the guy at the vw dealership said coolant is coolant astounds me. he should be shot but oh well.

yea dealerships are rediculous. the guy at the dealership was a salesperson, he asked if i needed any help. i was saying the same thing anyway, lol. another wierd thing is the mechanic never told me anything about the g12 either, oh well. yea maybe i will flush the system soon and maybe even attempt to fix the leak(s). how does it screw your coolant system up by using another type of coolant. do you know what happens?
