any VW or Audi dealer will have it

VW dealer might sell it cheaper. Doubt it though.

The Peak Global is a G-05 compatible coolant (which is very similar to the G12+). I have posted on

the G12+ before - do a search on it and my user number and you'll find out a lot more info. Current stock at a VW/Audi dealer should be the G12+ - it is more violet/pink in color, the older G12 stuff is bright pink. I posted the part numbers so you can tell for sure...
