I want to know what will happen if VW G12 coolant is mixed with Dexcool. From reading previous threads, it appears that the only difference between the two is a very slight difference in the PH#. In my thick wooden skull, this means the two coolants should be perfectly compatible.
If I simply mix equal amounts of each into a container, will this tell me if they are ok to mix, or would I have to conjure up some way to simulate an operating condition? I guess what I'm getting at is that the two might appear to mix fine in a container, but might seperate, gel, spontaneously combust, etc. when put into service.
My indy VW mechanic swears that the two coolants can not be mixed. I just want to see if he's right or wrong.
Any input is appreciated.
