Try Jiffy Lube, if you are in CA. They usually charge me extra for a top-up.

Do not use anything other than G-12 in any Volkswagen built after 1996. And NEVER mix other coolants with G-12 as it will turn into a sludgy brown goo that will block and corrode your system.
 
G-12 is specifically meant for your Volkswagen - Do NOT use anything other than G-12.
 
Did I mention not to use anything other than G-12 in your Volkswagen....?
