Yes it is. Read your Bentley or your owner's manual. Non Phospate E-glycol
is specified distinctly and clearly and in just that simple of words. Same
words are used in the Mercedes and Jaguar and Volvo and Saab and Porsche
and Audi and BMW manuals. When you look up fluids and lubricants,
non-phosphate e-glycol is specified, ergo, it is spec.

You cannot and never will find VW specs outside the VW literature. Just
another statement of fact. Pipe that in your smoke and put it where it
feels good. Read all the other industry engineers you want, and they still
won't change VW specs.

Will Sierra hurt my car????? I don't know. I don't know means the only way
to know is run the experiment. I don't experiment with my or my clients
metallurgy. You however may do as you will, with my advise remaining use
spec, whether you like it or not.
