[s-cars] Coolant T (tee) replacement info

[brian hoeft]

heres a more proof positive update

the temp,  thermo time, sensor was possibly an issue with the VAG # ,so the
bosch # may work better; 0 280 130 037 .. list was 79.90 I spent 23.95

big up to the gents at RPM in NJ www.rpmforeignauto.com

.. T fitting and 025 sensor was 8 fed notes,  and the o-ring looks separate,
numbered N90 316 802, ,,very common otherwise
