Noobie:- Coolant Additive - 1994 80 2.0ltr 16v

[Degriz]

Hi all, havent had a car in years and have just bought an 1994 Audi 80 2.0 16v. Enjoying driving it I have to say!
Need to top up the coolant and the manual (Yes I have one!!)
says I need to add 40 percent of this coolant additive....
Ok....So where in the heck do I get some from?!?!
Im sure shops will have it but what the heck do I ask for?

Heeeeeelp!!

Thx in advance

You need to ask for Antifreeze! Your manual is being a bit cryptic. It does have corrosion inhibitors in. Best advice is to get the genuine stuff, VW audi specialists like gsf and eurocarparts will have it as well as the dealers.
If you use cheap stuff you might need to replace the coolant each year, which is not the case with the genuine stuff.

Ahh I see..Thanks very much for answering, yes the manual is cryptic, thought it must be something more exotic..Thanks very much!!!
