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

What is the recommended anti freeze for a 2002 C4. My coolant is a little low and would like top it off.

POST 2Original post

OEM stuff went from green to pink in 05. You should put Water Wetter from Red line,it will reduce your temp.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

David do you have a product name of OEM?

POST 4Original post

That is a good question, I thought porsche manufactured it, but it is probably someone elses in porsche clothing......

POST 5Original post

Porsche and VW use the same coolant. Unless you're in really COLD climates well below zero....and you find your coolant level a bit low....all you really need to do is add some distilled water. I'm in the Sacramento CA area....temps rarely get below 15 above.....so no need to take it that low...and a little distilled water does just fine. If you're losing that much coolant, you'd better start checking on where it's going.... I see you're in Monterey CA....you sure as hell won't get below zero there....add a bit of distilled water. Even with the addition of the water, you'll still be well below freezing with what you've already got in there. If you need the actual part number of the coolant...do an archive search here or on RennTech and you'll get the info you need.... but it's like $45 a gallon.

POST 6Original post

OEM stuff is Pentosin G12. Available at Porsche, Audi, VW dealers and the occasional import auto parts shop. However, as chuck noted, a bit of distilled water will do the trick in Monterey.
