[BiturboS4] Frozen S4

[California Fields]

All you need to do is have "winterized" washer fluid. Yours probably frooze
for the reason you mentioned (residual "summer" fluid in the pipes). You
might want a lighter weight oil if you've been using heavier stuff...but
most people just run 0W30 all year round. Snow tires might help out too.

Have fun! Doing all-wheel drive doughnuts in the snow is a lot of fun!
