Re: Audi 5000 doorhandles

I strongly recommend to substitute the lithium grease to Amsoil all
purpose synthetic grease (red color), if you use synthetic oil (Amsoil
ofcourse) the door handle grease and the engine oil will work in
conjunction very well... it is not recommended to mix (Audi q are very
sensitive) lithium grease (for the door handle) with synthetic oil in the
crank case, ofcourse it is assumed that you are using Amsoil (synthetic) in
the transmission and differentials. In the case that you prefer Mobil 1,
please follow the above procedure.
please note that the above is not recommended by the factory but nor is
cautioned against, so we assume it is acceptable. You should expect:
1. much better performance from you q (15-20% BHP gain),
2. longer life from all your mechanical components (especially sunroof if
you have one, if you don't, get one!),
3. better cold weather performance,
4. better hot weather performance,
5. higher boost (if you have a turbo)
6. and all and all better wholesome life for yourself and all your
family......
Please be advised that the above will be very costly, but well worth
it.....
Good luck to you in your new life....
