Re: Coolant
I'm not saying anything, I'm merely quoting from a VW TSB. The newer VW's
with the pink stuff have no recommended change interval for coolant though,
it is supposed to be lifetime - but would anyone want to test that?
I do have a 96 Jetta with the green stuff and I have no recommended change
interval for coolant either so I don't really know!
