I use Valvoline Zerex Asian Blue in mine. Good stuff, and compatible with OEM Mitsubishi coolant, for like half the price.

Flush your cooling system and replace the green coolant with Valvoline Zerex G48, it's what's inside BMW's coolant jugs at the dealer.

  • Temperature stability:

I used Valvoline Zerex Asian Blue Vehicle Antifreeze/Coolant in my 1st gen anytime I needed to drain the radiator because you can buy it anywhere. 50/50 is handy for top offs but if I was doing a full flush I got concentrated and mixed with distilled water which comes out a good bit cheaper.

Pros: easy to find, handy for top-offs, cost-effective
Vehicle: Subaru BRZ

  • Temperature stability:

Since that 5/2023 bulletin refers to Valvoline as formulating the latest version of G12Evo, and Valvoline/Zerex HT-12 says on the bottle that it is for G12Evo applications as well as referencing VW TL 774-L, it should be okay to use HT-12 in our coolant systems.

Pros: okay to use HT-12
Part number: HT-12

  • Smell:

My 2029 Alltrack has developed the same problem at 50K miles. Drops about 1” for every two hours driven. You can see and smell the antifreeze.

Pros: can see antifreeze
Cons: drops quickly, smell antifreeze

  • Temperature stability:

Yes, the documents say they are compatible - at the cost of losing some corrosion protection. Don\u2019t use G13 if you have a choice. G13 becomes acidic and causes leaks, and leaves deposits in the system which cause clogging. VW switched to G12evo for a reason.

Pros: compatible according to documents
Cons: losing corrosion protection
