    After a long lived small radiator leak, I've now got pure water in my cooling system (2000 A6 2.4 AML engine). So I need to add some G12+ before it freezes this winter.

    Is there a coolant drain plug? Or is the recommended method to release the bottom hose and let the water out that way.

    Thanks.
