Okay I have a 2002 VW Passat that should have G-12 coolant in it. I recently had to replace a hose and lost some coolant. I topped it off with distilled water but after bleeding the system I need to add more coolant, as right now I am at -10deg f protection and do not want to dilute it any further. Well to my surprise I am told G-12 should be pink in color. The coolant I have is an orangish yellow color.
Is there any way to tell what coolant this is, I really do not want to do a complete drain and flush in VT in the middle of the winter, and considering I only need maybe 2 cups of coolant, it seems like a big waste.
