The age probably doesn't matter.  What is important is that it's
non-phosphate.  If you are not sure about that, find some that is.

Many of us use Dex-cool long life or something similar.  A few still buy
the expensive stuff from a VW dealer.

Mix with distilled water or water from a dehumidifier.
