This is the stuff that you need from Pentosin. It only comes in 1.5 liter containers. Different color than the original, but no worries. can be purchased at O'Reillys in the US. Just Google it.
I still have not heard any answers from you folks out there regarding the actual coolant requirements for the 6 TT. The manual shows 28.5 liters which equates to 7.5 US gallons, not 6 gallons. The procedure above shows 6 total gallons not 7.5?

I just wanted to say a big thankyou for this. I found the how to on non turbo and the official Porsche procedure seemed lacking.
It is weird though as others have stated that Porsche says the Turbo has 7.4 or 7.6 gallons. I believe with this procedure we would still have approx 1/2 a gallon in the heater core but still doesnt account for the Porsche spec. The standard Carrera says it has 6.5.
