The Trisexual
I came across this when researching for a decent coolant for the Audi. Almost completely useless with your D-B series engines.
BASF makes a good portion of the European OEM and did the fundamental engineering on two common American coolants made here under license: DexCool and G-05.
Here's a recap of BASF's families of coolants followed by URL's for some of them. Notice there are three DexCool type coolants, G 30, G 33, and G 34, but no Japanese-equivalents of the Honda and Toyota coolants:
Nitrite- containing, amine-, phosphate-free:
G 05 - Universal use for all types of engines
007/400 F - Specially for Rover and Rolls Royce, approvals by Detroit Diesel, Cummins, Perkins
G 206 - Approved by MAN (for use in arctic regions)
Nitrite-, amine-, phosphate-free:
G 48 - Universal use for all types of engines e.g. Mercedes-Benz
G 51 - "Fighting grade product" with basic corrosion protection
Nitrite-, amine-, phosphate-, silicate-, borate-free (OAT):
G 30 - New generation of coolants e.g. for VW (see approval list)
G 33 - Approved by Peugeot, Citroen
G 34 - Approved by Opel/GM Europe, Saab
Nitrite-, amine-, phosphate-free Propylene glycol based:
Basin P 43 - Universal use for light vehicles and heavy-duty engines, applied in countries with special legal requirements
Engine coolant Super Concentrates:
Engine coolant Super Concentrates contain higher concentrated inhibitor packages than the normal Glysantin types. They have to be blended by the customer with monoethylene glycol according to a specified blending procedure to obtain engine
coolants that are conform to the product specification. Super Concentrates are available for Engine Coolant G 05, G 30 and G 48.
Super Concentrate G 99 + MEG --> Engine Coolant G 48
Super Concentrate G 102 + MEG --> Engine Coolant G 05
Super Concentrate G 106 + MEG --> Engine Coolant G 30

Most certainly not me.
