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.

8 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I am at my parents house for the holiday and was riding back from a friends house and coolant started spewing out of my car. Upon further inspection it looks like part #996.106.226.51 has cracked and allowed coolant out. I was wondering if there were any acceptable Porsche coolants other than the factory?

POST 3Original post

the modern bmw, porsche, mercedes, and audi/vw is the same stuff, different color. All G12

POST 4Original post

You'll also find other acceptable coolant choices when you do a search, many past discussions on alternatives.to the factory choice.

POST 5Original post

You can use distilled water till you get this fixed then put in the proper coolant.

POST 6Original post

+1 to distilled water for the time being (not more than 1 or 2 gallons unless you are really in a pinch)... later you'll need to get the mixture back to 50/50. If the leak is major fix the leak first, otherwise all that expensive distilled water will leak out all over the road and kill lots of things.

POST 7Original post

I have distilled water in my rad for track use but need to get regular coolant back in there as winter approaches.... given I'm 100% distilled water how many hours will a shop charge to to back to coolant?

POST 8Original post

A couple at most. And a shop is good because it is done with a vacuum fill. Means no air bubble badness or hot spots down the road...
