Ditched the G11 for the Prestone 50/50 stuff a while back. Good stuff not problems and hell of a late cheaper then G12.

Pros: good stuff, no problems
Cons: cheaper then G12

Of course I've only used the Prestone stuff, not the GM stuff (not sure if it's identical) but ran it on my GTI with no probs and over 100k on my Rabbit without issues.

Pros: no problems, ran over 100k
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 100000 km

I've had good luck with the orange Prestone stuff. It's DexCool approved.. basically the same thing as G12 as far as chemistry.

Pros: DexCool approved, same as G12

When I bought my Jetta it was filled with Prestone. One time the fan switch crapped out on me so while replacing it I did a coolant flush and decided to use G12. About 2 weeks later the car started overheating like mad.

Cons: car started overheating
