The Mercedes yellow is the same, made by BASF Germany for Mercedes. The Jaguar blue, same-0-same-o. No green I have ever seen is without phosphates. Never use green, verify all others as no phosphates e-glycol. And even more important, complete change for new yearly to be sure corrosion can NEVER GET STARTED. Keep the motor clean as well and you may just get 200,000 miles from a WasserBoxer before the hoses get hard from 20 years of age and the first leak starts, but still no corrosion at all.
