Just talked with friendly VW service manager who says "just use Autobahn"
so I asked him for the cheapest source and he indicated a repair shop
down the street.  Think I'll keep "just using Autobahn".  BTW he had some
real horror stories about recent Audis with a strange new antifreeze
that cannot be mixed with ANYTHING.
Audi had to do two $30K car overhauls in warranty for two owners who
filled the correct a/f from another a/f bottle but hadn't perfectly
rinsed it out.  The a/f turns into bubble gum in the engine, pipes,
radiator......

Cheers, Tom Neal
