Antifreeze?

2006 Sport. I'm in France. Need to top up the Antifreeze. I can only find one that might be comparable to what is in the system......Micheline VAG G13....looked on the net and cannot find any info as to comparability to XLC which I understand is what is in the system at the moment. Can anyone confirm YES or NO so I can proceed. Andrew Kennedy

Well it either needs to be orange or universal stuff.

Hm....its more like a purple colour. Photo attached (I hope). No feeling very confident about this. Andrew Kennedy

the car doesn't really care what fluid it has in it.

The important thing is to not mix certain types, (e.g blue and orange) as it can turn to sludge and block the system.


you can get universal top up

G13 does seam to be different to what a 2006 would have left the factory with.

More the VW spec. I would use something else or water
