The weird thing is...the day (to the hour) my wife's 200t overheated I had a
conversation with my mechanic that went something along the lines of the
following:

Me: "Car is 10 years old, with 100K miles. What should I consider replacing
prophylactically?"

Him: "Radiator, neck goes sometimes, without warning. You should change that
next time it's in, unless you're planning on selling the car in the next six
months."

Then her: "Hi, hon, I'm at a gas station just outside East Nowhere, and
there's something wrong with the Audi. Clouds of smoke are pouring out from
where I think the engine is. Have you been working on my car again?"
