Green.
Orange.
Red.

Depends on the type and manufacturer.

ADDED:RED or PINK Vw Antifreeze:
Make sure you use the correct color Vw antifreeze! Vw models manufactured in 1997-on use this red or pink antifreeze. The part numbers are G012A8D and ZVw 237 G12. This G12 Vw antifreeze is still available from us, but when our current stock is depleted it'll be replaced by the below G 012 A8F G12+ purple antifreeze. This pink and the below purple Vw antifreeze are interchangeable and can be mixed. However, this antifreeze should not be mixed with blue or green colored antifreeze. Dealer prices are often for a pre-mixed bottle of antifreeze. Our prices reflect a concentrated 1.5L bottle, meaning more for your money.

PURPLE Vw Antifreeze:
Make sure you use the correct color Vw antifreeze! This antifreeze cannot be mixed with blue or green colored Vw antifreeze. Vw models began using this purple antifreeze in 2003. The different part numbers are G 012 A8FM, G 012 A8F A1, or G 012 A8F A4. This Vw antifreeze has recently been introduced as a replacement (and is the same as) for the earlier red or pink G

In conclusion, there are currently two oranges, two reds, green, dark green,
yellow, blue, blue-green, clear and pink dye colors available. With this variety of
dye colors and more to come, the service technician’s ability to properly service
and maintain light duty and heavy duty cooling systems properly will be greatly
challenged. It is imperative the technician be fully aware of what the vehicle
manufacturers' requirements for antifreeze are and those recommendations be
carefully followed. For further information regarding cooling system maintenance,
refer to TSB's 88-1R3, 89-1R2, 97-2 and 02-1.
