Don't forget to use the stickies. The second link is Vanagon Essentials ~ The FAQ Guide. Then engines http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?p=6236044#6236044 and in there http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=488648

I'll let you do the reading. The original VW spec for 85 was the blue coolant, but many others will work.

BMW Blue coolant is fine and still actually available.

I just make sure it is phosphate free, usually use Prestone.
