Genuine VW G-11 coolant $17/gallon.  Part number ZVW 237 105.  Dealer Only.

 A very timely question for me, since I'm about to take the leap from air cooled to water cooled. I'm picking up an '84 Westy this weekend, and while hoping I won't need any on the 350 mile drive home, I did want to take along a gallon of antifreeze. I also didn't want to get the wrong stuff, so I figured a VW dealer was the safest bet. They sold me the stuff listed above, but not for $17.00/gallon, they charged me $20.00/gallon. Then again, this was Stohlman Volkswagen in Vienna, Virginia, and I'm not surprised at all they'd clip me for an additional $3.00!  Jeff
