Re: low Pentosin - Flickering lights
Andrew's "heavy" cat made him say:
"I do know the differnce between brake fluid and Pentosin"
OK, if you please, enlighten an Audi newbie. WHAT THE HECK IS
Pentosin???? Is it a trade name for some magic elixer that only
Audis use? My used car did not come with a manual and I haven't
got a Bentley yet.
Please save my car from a fate worse than death. I wouldn't want
it to be filled with mere brake fluid. (BTW is Pentosin - if it
IS "brake fluid", a 500 degree Hi-perf fluid? how does it
compare
with DOT-5 racing brak fluid?)
My flickering light story is the coolant temperature warning
light on my 80Q will flicker on high-G right hand turns ONLY. ie
quick rights or hi-speed sweepers. It doesn't ever happen on
left
handers.
I checked the coolant level and it's fine standing still. Engine
temp is normal. I suspect the position of the temp sensor might
be the culprit.
TIA
