PRINZ Automotive tells you all the secrets of G13 coolant, which is essential for the proper functioning of the engine.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What is the G13 ?<\/h2>\n

A long-lasting, ready-to-use coolant made from monoethylene glycol<\/a> and glycerol.<\/p>\n

This coolant uses additives including a specific technology, pink\/purple color, this coolant has the same cooling and antifreeze performance as G12++ in particular.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||0px|||”]<\/p>\n

What is its function ?<\/h2>\n

This fluid has a function of cooling the engine of the vehicle, to protect it from overheating, but also against freezing.<\/p>\n

Its main purpose, in summer, is to maintain the engine temperature below 100\u00b0C to prevent it from overheating and, in winter, to serve as antifreeze.<\/p>\n

Especially recommended for the cooling systems of light and commercial vehicles of the VAG group (VOLKSWAGEN, AUDI, SKODA and SEAT).<\/p>\n

This coolant also protects against corrosion.<\/p>\n

Miscibility (mixture compatibility) of different types of “G” technology coolants:<\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.prinzauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/timeline.png” alt=”timeline” title_text=”timeline” _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” module_alignment=”center”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||0px|||”]<\/p>\n

With the summary below, you can see if your liquid can be mixed with another.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • G11<\/strong> mixes well with G12+, G12++ or G13 but not with G12.<\/li>\n
  • G12<\/strong> mixes well with G12+, G12++ and G13 but not with G11.<\/li>\n
  • G12+<\/strong> mixes well with G12++ and G13, also with G11 and G12 but there is a loss of corrosion protection.<\/li>\n
  • G12++<\/strong> mixes well with G13, also with G11, G12 and G12+ but there is a loss of corrosion protection.<\/li>\n
  • G13<\/strong> mixes well with G12++, also with G11, G12 and G12+ but there is a loss of corrosion protection.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    How to read a coolant label ?<\/h3>\n

    [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.prinzauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/comment-lire-etiquette-3.png” alt=”G13″ title_text=”how-to-read-a-label-LR” show_in_lightbox=”on” _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” module_alignment=”center”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||0px|||” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n

    For which radiators is G13 recommended ?<\/h2>\n

    It is particularly recommended for the cooling systems of light and commercial vehicles of the VAG group (VOLKSWAGEN, AUDI, SKODA and SEAT), including radiators made of aluminum, cast iron and magnesium alloys.<\/p>\n

    Thanks to the silicate additives it contains, it can further protect and repair aluminum.<\/p>\n

    On the other hand, G13 is not recommended for older engines with copper or brass radiators.<\/p>\n

    It is not recommended for radiators with lead solder. It is better to use a universal antifreeze in this case.<\/p>\n

    Which brands are compatible with G13 coolants ?<\/h2>\n

    It is particularly recommended for the cooling systems of light and commercial vehicles of the VAG Group (VOLKSWAGEN, AUDI, SKODA and SEAT), regardless of the vehicle belonging to these brands.<\/p>\n

    If you have any doubts, we recommend that you read your vehicle’s manual carefully or seek the advice of a professional.<\/p>\n
