What do you mean by self cooling engine. Are you
talking old or new body style.

"self cooling engine" -- I can't imagine what this means.

Default I think its where the driver blows hot air back into the engine compartment.
From there, a cogeneration process turns the hot air into 1)cool air for the engine and 2)you guessed it, CHEESE!!

Default Amazing how often people find their way here and...
post things that are so far out ridiculous and/or unrelated to A8's. You'd think they must have crawled out of a basement with their mouths dripping with liquid cheese and driving Plymouths... In other words, welcome voyager! :-)
