        Pretty sure QW has built in blocking capabilities. No need to download other software.   -  GreenMachine  2017-02-03 11:38:20 (391 views)

        You help choreograph that one?   -  GreenMachine  2017-02-02 19:44:42 (384 views)
- Tap on the dash - maybe the gauges are stuck. My oil temp sticks periodically. Or check senders. - mtg 2017-02-01 15:51:40 (448 views)
  - 2nd^ Go to channel 51 on the Climate Control and verify the car isn't heating up. - GreenMachine 2017-02-01 16:01:04 (387 views)
    - But Rob has never heard of Channel 51. - UrS4boy 2017-02-03 17:08:21 (353 views)
- You could cover up most of the radiator with a sheet of cardboard. :) - TabulaRasa 2017-02-01 12:25:26 (526 views)
  - I leave tomorrow night, so hopefully will knock it out tonight. - Cash68 2017-02-01 14:10:13 (404 views)

      - If I use a coolant clamp on the hose, do I still have to drain the radiator?   -  Cash68  2017-02-01 14:34:10 (425 views)
        
        There's this thing called the FAQ.  -  GreenMachine  2017-02-01 14:41:08 (512 views)
        
        Yeah, that's why I asked.  -  Cash68  2017-02-01 15:20:12 (462 views)
        
        I didn't drain the radiator, I just let all the coolant dump out on the ground.   -  TabulaRasa  2017-02-01 16:13:34 (379 views)
        
        Good for killing cats and dogs.   -  UrS4boy  2017-02-01 20:36:34 (370 views)
        
        not sure what your point is   -  TabulaRasa  2017-02-01 23:56:27 (417 views)
        
        If you were serious about dumping coolant on the ground, it was a bad idea.   -  UrS4boy  2017-02-02 10:14:07 (420 views)
        
        I'm aware the coolant is a poison  -  TabulaRasa  2017-02-06 12:56:35 (331 views)
        
        Ethylene glycol attracts animals to its sweet taste with deadly results. That sold in the US is  -  scarman  2017-02-02 09:14:06 (460 views)
        
        US coolant has a bitterant added, and yes, it's extremely bitter. It still SMELLS sweet, however.  -  hydrochloric  2017-02-02 13:05:18 (463 views)
        
        Top tip. Drain the radiator from the drain on the passenger side.  -  GreenMachine  2017-02-01 16:19:36 (472 views)
- coolant thermostat. Try not to break anything else while replacing it. - scarman 2017-02-01 09:56:28 (455 views)
  - Thanks, what temp rating is stock? FLAPS has 160, 174, and 180. - Cash68 2017-02-01 10:24:53 (423 views)
    - Do some reading Rob. - UrS4boy 2017-02-02 10:43:07 (447 views)
    - 87º C is stock so 180º F is a little low but better that what you have now. - scarman 2017-02-01 10:51:34 (456 views)

      - I have had just as good success with the Wahler aftermarket thermostats as with the genuine Audi - scarman 2017-02-01 11:04:50 (447 views)
        
        Yep, should have been more clear. - GreenMachine 2017-02-01 11:07:26 (492 views)
      - Not possible. Nearest audi dealer is 80 miles away.   -  Cash68  2017-02-01 10:51:56 (499 views)
        
        With the way you claim to drive, 160 mile roundtrip should take under 2 hours. :)   -  TabulaRasa  2017-02-01 12:26:07 (463 views)
        
        Zimbrick Audi of Madison  -  GreenMachine  2017-02-01 11:09:04 (492 views)
        
        Yup. I'm not in Madison anymore. New jerb a year ago or so.   -  Cash68  2017-02-01 14:09:45 (434 views)
