Topoff w/Dexcool or fill with WalMart stuff, all same Organic Acid Tech. I use G-05(Mercedes)Hybrid

with a new rad/WP job in my A4, converted outright on many other cars. Hybrid Organic Acid Technology w/silicates is much better in all respects especially cavatation but except (supposedly) service life. I would not use Dexcool/G-12 at all, especially long periods. 50k is a good figure for either kind, OAT or HOAT. I'll post a helpfull link later. Dex tech is really bad, trust me. Ford and Chrysler use it in yellow and orange because they wanted nothing to do with Dexcool and now GM is (rumoured) to be going along with G-05.
