Default Am I supposed to mix G12 coolant with water?
I just picked up a bottle today at a VW dealer and I asked him if I needed to mix it and his responce was.."it's the new G12". Didn't really answer my question. I've already topped off the resevior straight from the bottle, but I wanted to know for future use.

I don't think they sell it premixed...so yes, mix with water.
