The linde forklifts we use at the local mill come with a VW engine in them. The first machine we had we mixed the purple MOBIL coolant in with the the G12. Within 5-6000 hours of runtime, the rad and oil coolers were all plugged with silicant dropout. (Or something that plugged the coolers). We started draining out the factory coolant G12 and just run the MOBIL coolant from the start. No troubles. Though it seems we start getting coolant in the oil between 16000 and 20000 hours of runtime. By then it is usually time for a engine rebuild and we put a new head on.

We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
