Towing at night in hot weather
I'm at Yuma now and many people are taking off and going back home. Several wait till after dark. I asked others about this and was told "its 20 degrees cooler". Mid 90's to 70's. OK, I understand...

I have hooked up test gauges to my system to double check the on board gauges. I was really surprised by the difference in water temp and the oil pressure between the test gauges and the on board gauges. On board were showing normal range, test gauges showed substantial difference on the negative side.
My FIL was a VW factory trained mechanic. He said once VW set their dials to report the actual readings of what the engine was doing and it caused a lot of people to bring the cars in thinking something was wrong because the dials change frequently.
It got old fast so VW changed it back so the dials show less -- more like it is either broken or it is fine.
