i've heard that if you don't use the correct antifreeze in a DG motor, it'll feck it up
what's the recomended stuff, or will any antifreeze do the job
thanks

True when it was new... but nobody ever changed it anyway as VW reckoned it was fit for life.... Too bloomin late now unless you have a complete new cooling system and VW recon engine
Just use a good branded one (I used comma) and if you get the ready mixed stuff you wont have to use demin water..
change it every 2-3 years..
