Good day
I'm going to replace the waterpump on my 2008 Jetta 5 1.9 tdi bxe motor and just want to ask which type of antifreeze/coolant I must use, apparently there are 3 different types.
thanks

Re: what type antifreeze to use
Nope only one type. VW G12 or G13. Pink or purple in colour.
Do not mix the two. Either flush and put G13 or put G12.
