Default It takes just 5 min to read up on it. Kinda nice to know more than Dealer Techs about ~something~;0)

Right from the MOTOR Magazine article:
"Top up with DexCool in GM and VW/Audi vehicles, and '98 Chrysler L/H cars or the '99 Mercury Cougar, if you get one with the original coolant or DexCool. Top up everything else with your second coolant-G-05 or conventional American."

The G-05 article and pics are very interesting. I switched to it with a new w/p and a much-needed radiator at 75k. I expect my new parts to last much longer. Dexcool will be history as Ford and GM drop it in favour of G-05. VW should do the same.
