Lifetime coolant questions

[kzildjian at home.com]

David,
  Always change the coolant.  I never understood the whole "Lifetime
Coolant" theory.  Must be some environmental thing.  I change my
"Lifetime" coolant every two years with the OEM Pentosin Blue Coolant. 
DO NOT USE GREEN stuff.  From what I understand, the orange DEXCOOL
brand of coolant from Texaco is fine to use in Audi's.  So, Your feeling
is right.  Change that coolant.
