stuartyvag 4 Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 Hi guys, After extensively searching what coolant I need for my recently bought VR6 as the current coolant looks pretty grim.. I have came across this coolant: https://www.amazon.co.uk/febi-bilstein-38201-Antifreeze-Coolant/dp/B00FZGA8V0/ref=au_as_r?ie=UTF8&n=248877031&newVehicle=1&s=automotive&submodelId=1877 I am told G13 will do the job and I need around 10 litres of overall liquid to completely refill the system after emptying it. Being a bit slow today and cant work out from the dilution pictures on the front of the Febi Bilstein bottle that it is ok to mix the 5 litres of coolant with 5 litres of de-ionised water? Any help or suggestions of other decent afforable coolants would be much apprecaited. Cheers. Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 I've always mixed 50/50 mix so should be OK. As long as you get the pink coolant its all good, G13 replaced G12. Can probably got to any local motor factors, ECP , GSF to get it cheaper than what is listed on amazing, I paid around £20 for G13 equivalent coolant last year. Pete Link to post Share on other sites
stuartyvag 4 Posted April 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 Thanks for the help Pete, closest I could find on ECP is this? http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/p/car-accessories/engine-oils-and-car-fluids/antifreeze-and-screenwash/red-antifreeze/?523770521&0&cc5_866 order x2 as its already diluted i'm assuming?
