Default You are right as usual. A radiator water level ability is much more

important then knowing the temperature of the air in your tires, or about 90% of the other monitoring gadgets in these cars. Very disheartning after buying a D3 to still have to obtain the temperature in our radiators using the "finger" method.

Default Believe they are resolved for now. Run alot of large SW applications that

eventually become "sick" from their coupling; WinFax Pro, just upgraded OmniPage to vs. 14, Outlook, add in alittle "cellphone to Outlook" synchronization SW and add the inability of the user to understand anything puter oriented and problems appear.

One more real time electrical sensor and the battery will never get above 50% level!

Default A waterbed is more vapor permeable than a car's coolong system. I agree with

Greenie that large losses must be from a leak.

Default If there was anything done to the car (thermostat, radiator, flush, etc)..

and they had to re-fill there may have just been some air in the cooling system and it "burped". Top it off and see if there is any change.
