G11 & G12: Can You Mix Them? (Plus Tips)

Hi.

I broke my tractor.
It was filled with G11 coolant. Now there's G12plus, which is compatible with all types of coolant.

I briefly saw it in the workshop yesterday, and from the outside, the liquid in the reservoir looked BROWN.
That used to be the warning color for an unacceptable and dangerous G11-G12 mixture.

That means, yes, that I can no longer distinguish between "evil" G11-G12 and "allowed" G11-G12+ mixtures?

Furthermore, I wanted the entire system to be converted to G12+, which the workshop apparently didn't do.

If I do it myself, WHERE do I put the old G11-G12+ water?

Hmm, so, if you buy something from them, they usually also take back the old item.

And now what?

Hello Martin, G11 and G12 plus together create a purple tone, not brown.
I would also replace the brown soup.
Normally, the VW store should accept the return of the broth.
Otherwise, you can just put the packages in front of the door after work, and then they will have to pick them up.
