If you don't need/want it and you're willing to part with it, I'd gladly take it. I lost some coolant yesterday when I was fixing my seeping oil cooler hose. Filled with water, so I'm probably running about a 70/30 mix right now. I need about a liter or so to get back to 60/40.

Default I think I still have a nearly new bottle of the stuff....

Don't really need it now that I have no Audi.

I live out west, Eldridge and Briar Forest. It's yours.

Default Damn...

I thought I cleaned you out when I took the car!

I should have asked more questions.

Speaking of, do you still have any RS4 grills left? The argent color on this grill is starting to peel off. Looking for a replacement, let me know what you have and we can talk.

Default forgot I had it, found it when we moved to the new apartment.

I think I have a grill or two in the garage... not sure which ones. I'll check when I get home.

Default Yeah, it's laying all over the driver's side of my engine bay!

Just started leaking recently from around the end of the lower hose coming out of the front of the reservoir, and then enough leaked to cause the low coolant warning. Is this the oil cooler hose you were talking about? I couldn't see where it went from above. Gotta take it in now I guess!

Default Probably not the same place, but same symptom

Audi uses those squeeze clamps and over time, the coolant just start to seep past the clamp.
