i also think you need to use a vacuum bleed tool to do it correctly, pretty sure Demort would confirm

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, I'm looking to change the coolant on my 996 turbo. Would anyone know whether the Porsche Coolant is pre-mixed? I'm looking to add distilled water to help prevent corrosion. Thanks :thumbs:

POST 2Original post

Porsche antifreeze is not diluted . They specify a 50 / 50 mix which equates to - 31 C . Total coolant antifreeze content would be in the region of 11 ltrs.

POST 3Original post

i also think you need to use a vacuum bleed tool to do it correctly, pretty sure Demort would confirm Cheers

POST 4Original post

A total drain of the coolant and yes .. you can try without .. its normally a mission and raises the risk of an airlock and overheating .. that's not so good and not how i do it . The newer the car and the more the need for this .. Panamera , 991 etc and you have to .. no ifs or buts ... you have to .

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, Do I have to use Porsche coolant? will it affect the car or value if I use another make. Porsche is £11 per litre

POST 6Original post

You can use any antifreeze you like as long as it's the same specs .. no one will ever know unless it's some strange colour !

POST 7Original post

Comma G30 is Porsche approved as per label. I used concentrate and mixed 50/50 with distilled water.

POST 8Original post

i assume the vw stuff would be similar? would need to check it properly but its the same group. cheers
