A modern vehicle is inconceivable without a reliable cooling system. The coolant ensures that your engine neither overheats nor is damaged by frost. With the Volkswagen Genuine Coolant G12evo You will receive the exact same fluid that is used in the new car production of VW, Audi, SEAT and Škoda - tailored to the highest requirements of modern engines.
Available as:
- VW coolant G12E050A2 – 1 liter Ready Mix
- VW coolant G12E050M2 – 1 liter Ready Mix
- VW coolant G12E050A3 – 5 liters Ready Mix
Why the right coolant is so important
During operation, the engine generates enormous temperatures. Without coolant, it would simply overheat. At the same time, the fluid protects against freezing in winter, prevents limescale deposits in the radiator and pipes, and prevents corrosion.
With the G12evo you're on the safe side:
- Frost protection down to -35 °C - no risk of frost damage in winter
- Heat protection up to 135 °C - the engine remains protected even in traffic jams or high outside temperatures.
- Corrosion protection - Special inhibitors form a protective film over all metal parts in the cooling system
- Limescale protection - Deposits caused by hard water are avoided
- Cavitation protection - protects against micro-damage caused by pressure fluctuations in the cooling system
- Optimal material compatibility - specifically designed for use with metals, rubber and plastics in the VW cooling system
Technical Delivery Conditions (TL 774-L)
The VW coolant G12evo meets the strict requirements Technical Delivery Conditions (TL 774-L). These specifications precisely define the physical, chemical and technical properties a coolant must have - from ingredients and mixing ratios to material compatibility.
Volkswagen is thus going beyond general ISO standards. For you, this means absolute certainty that the product is tailored to your vehicle and will function reliably under all conditions.
What causes these defects?
Cooling system defects are often caused by incorrect or low-quality coolant, incorrect mixture, or insufficient fluid. Typical problems include:
- Freezing due to insufficient antifreeze → Engine block or cylinder head can crack
- Overheating due to incorrect mixture → Engine overheats, hoses burst
- limescale deposits → become lodged in cooling channels and block heat dissipation
- corrosion → damages metals in the cooling system, leads to leaks
- Cavitation → Small gas bubbles cause micro-damage in metal parts
The consequences range from loss of performance and high repair costs to total engine failure.
What you as a customer should pay attention to
- Maintain the mixing ratio: minimum 40%, maximum 55% coolant content
- Use only Ready Mix: Never dilute with tap water
- Check regularly: Check the coolant level, antifreeze concentration, and leak tightness of the cooling system.
- Take warning signs seriously: If the coolant warning light illuminates or the temperature gauge rises into the red zone, stop immediately and check.
- Use only VW-approved products: Foreign products can attack materials and cause damage.
