If its Glycol based then yes it will be fine but it needs mixing still to protect to around -23 degrees... thats what "type-d" means afterall, not the colour or the fact the pre-mix from Renault has this written on the label.

Yes, it's based on mono-ethyl-glycol (MEG) + additives to prevent corosion on aluminium...and mixed it protects to -37 degrees. Is it ok to use it, because now i have some red (VAG) coolant.

If you mix it more it'll be weaker and so protect to whatever you need it to... Hydrometers are cheap these days and very easy to use ;)

I can't see why it wouldn't be okay to use as it has corrosion inhibitors. Its just a tad strong at -37 degrees for this climate.
