VW Volkswagen Original G13 Coolant Audi (Succesor Of G12++)

Product Information

G12+ mixes well with G12++ and G13, also with G11 and G12 but there is a loss of corrosion protection. G13 is Glycerine based and comes as a concentrate you dilute with distilled water (also discontinued I think).

Its special composition raises the water’s boiling point to 135C (275F) while preventing evaporation, and lowers the freezing point to -40C (-40F) while maintaining a constant pH value. With its premium performance, compatibility, and long-lasting properties, this coolant ensures your engine stays cool and in top condition for the long haul. I lost a lot of coolant doing my clutch job, since there are coolant lines that go to the gearbox in my car.As opposed to many earlier specifications using OAT-technology (Organic Acid Technology), G13 boasts silicate additives for extra healing aluminium protection. VW Volkswagen Original G13 Coolant is the ideal coolant solution for VW and Audi vehicles, offering premium protection for your engine. It's a tricky one, it's why I went genuine as I couldn't be sure with other manufacturers specs on fluids. It is particularly recommended for the cooling systems of light and commercial vehicles of the VAG group (VOLKSWAGEN, AUDI, SKODA and SEAT), including radiators made of aluminum, cast iron and magnesium alloys.

VW Volkswagen Original G13 Coolant offers excellent heat transfer properties, effectively dissipating heat from the engine, which is essential for preventing overheating and maintaining engine efficiency. Audi's TSB says use G21evo for service in MY19+ cars; use G13 for service in pre-MY19 cars (unless there were any MY18 e-trons; e-tron is G12 evo only). com/VW_Audi_Coolant_Cooling_G12_Plus_G13_Antifreeze_Purple_Pink_Pentosin_Vaic AT_HOAT_Hybrid_Silicates_Phosphates_Glycerin. VAG is not currently blending G13 because of supply chain issues with Silicates, so I have 4 gallons of both distilled water and Pentosin E on their way.It can be left in the system as a coolant and rust inhibitor for up to a maximum of 5 years in accordance with vehicle manufacturers requirements. Their antifreeze specification has continually evolved through time resulting in the latest (G13) established in 2013. However, it's essential to ensure compatibility with your specific VW or Audi model, as some older models may require different coolant specifications.

If you have any doubts, we recommend that you read your vehicle’s manual carefully or seek the advice of a professional. Genuine G12evo (new version of G13) coolant additives protect individual engine components, safeguarding the engine’s long service life. You will discover the significant advantages of this latest specification in explicit detail by reading on.The G13 has the same exceptional cooling and antifreeze performance as G12++, but it is manufactured using glycerin.

Current estimations suggest that G13 manufacture produces 11 % lower CO2 emissions than antifreeze with glycol. When it comes to ease of use, VW Volkswagen Original G13 Coolant is pre-mixed and ready to pour, eliminating the need for dilution.While The G13 delivers the same outstanding cooling and antifreeze capabilities as G12++, it includes the additional benefit of glycerin. However, G13 is not ideal for older cooling systems with copper/brass radiators and heater cores (it doesn’t integrate well with the lead solder). I have G12 ++ in there currently but the Audi dealership gave my partner G13 and said it would be fine.
