For those that don't know, that's how Bad Puppy earned her name.
The original oil fitting broke, spraying oil.  I replace that with a used
oil cooler and lines. That did the same thing, dumping oil a second
time.  I replace that with an aftermarket oil cooler and lines (see:
http://www.audifans.com/twiki/bin/view/Audi/OilCoolerReplacement)
and *that* blew a hose.  I reset the hose and tightened the clamp real
good, and never had another problem.  Until yesterday.

I don't have the car, so a post-mortem isn't going to happen.

Live goes on.
