  • Two VW screenwash bottles

    Screenwash

    With our screenwash concentrate, you’ll always have a clear view. It also protects your windscreen and the windscreen washer system against frost and limescale with the mixing ratio of 1:10 – without leaving any stains on your paintwork. In winter, use the concentrate with anti-freeze protection for your car.

    Your benefits

    • For summer and winter:
      Removes insects and grease, amongst other things, in the summer and protects the windscreen and windscreen washer system against limescale. In the winter, it protects against frost and removes road salt.
    • Environmentally friendly:
      Contains no water-insoluble washing agents.
    • Gentle on materials:
      Compatible with all Volkswagen materials: Does not cause cracks in plastic parts or marks on the paintwork.
  • Two VW new engine coolant bottles

    Coolant Additive G12evo

    Our new engine coolant G12evo features improved temperature stability compared to its predecessor, G13. This means that it works even under the exceptionally high demands of our new engine generation and reliably protects the engine against corrosion, limescale, acids and especially low temperatures down to -35 °C.

    Your benefits

    • Protects the engine:
      Against extreme temperatures as well as corrosion, acidification, accumulation of sludge and limescale.
    • Protects the materials:
      The coolant is compatible with the materials in the cooling system and contains no heavy metals or sulphur compounds. This helps to preserve the seals, for example.
    • Stable when mixed with water:
      It should preferably be mixed with distilled water.
    • Backward compatible:
      With our predecessor coolants such as coolant G13.

    We have put together information on warning lamps related to coolants.

  • Three cans of Volkswagen Genuine Brake Fluid

    Brake fluid

    Our brake fluid works even at very high and very low temperatures and extends the time between maintenance appointments: Our brake fluid has been specially developed for your Volkswagen brake system and is so much more than simply standard – it even sets its own: The VW standard 50114.

    Your benefits

    • Gentle on materials:
      It doesn’t affect the rubber seals and absorbs moisture. This reduces the risk of corrosion.
    • Excellent performance in cold conditions:
      Ready for operation, even at temperatures as low as -40 °C.
    • Longer maintenance interval:
      Extends the first maintenance interval of a new Volkswagen (from the model year 2008 upwards) from two to three years.
