Specs and approvals listed by the manufacturer

  • Meets VW TL 774 (variant not stated) per Antifreeze is glycol plus inhibitors. Choose it by your vehicle's specification. (Volkswagen Group)

Manufacturer wording: Listing by an authorised UK VW parts dealer (Cox Motor Parts): "VW Group approved, meets current VW TL 774 specification"; "Fully replaces G12, G12+, G12++ and G13 coolants".

"Meets X per manufacturer" is our shorthand for any of the manufacturer's own phrases: meets, meets or exceeds, approved, or recommended for applications requiring. It is the manufacturer's claim, not an approval by Coolant.com or by the vehicle maker. Codes are copied as published. Some sources list codes for compatibility rather than formal approval. The wording above shows which.

Compatibility notes

  • If your owner's manual calls for VW TL 774 (variant not stated), Volkswagen lists that code for this product. Read the exact wording above, and confirm against your manual.
  • Sold premixed: pour as supplied. Do not add water unless the label says to.

Note: Source is an authorised VW parts dealer, not a Volkswagen AG page. The dealer does not state the TL 774 letter; other makers associate G12evo with TL 774-L (see febi G12evo). Colour statements on that dealer page are inconsistent, so colour is left "not published".

Always check your owner's manual first. Use the coolant spec printed in your owner's manual or service information. A listing here is the manufacturer's own claim (meets, exceeds, approved or recommended, worded as they put it). It is not our approval and not a fitment guarantee for your vehicle. If in doubt, ask your dealer or a qualified mechanic.
