Accidentally drained some coolant while changing coolant temp. sensor - what kind to use?
I removed the reservoir cap and failed to replace it. I then removed the sensor and the coolant started to drain out. It took me a few seconds to figure out what was happening, and I replaced the reservoir cap, stopping the leakage. It seems like I drained the reservoir dry (not sure how much more than that).
Anyway, I need to top off now. Any particular kind to use? Is there some special Audi coolant? I have some Silkolene stuff that I use for my bike, but that's a different color and (I assume) grade. Can I get something at the local parts store, or should I run to the Audi dealer and get some there?

?? You ate too much turkey....
and the tryptophan is messing up your brain. You know so much regarding these cars, and don't know they need the G12 'liquid gold' from the stealership? hehehehehe.....sorry, just poking fun.
but yeah, dealer. You could just add distilled water in the meanwhile.
