Synthetics in Auto's

[Sdbigelow@aol.com]

Greeting to Q-lister's! 
Hope the Audi brain trust can offer guidance...

Does anyone have any experience/thoughts on the merits of synthetic vs. dino
automatic transmission fluid? I've got a '84 5ks, and I plan to keep it a
while.

Also, the damn auto-check brake light is doing it's little "Sacrifice Needed
Now" dance. Pentosin full, brake fluid full, pads O.K., pedal feels a little
spongy. There is no residual boost after engine off. Should there be? Is it
the bomb? If so, where is the best place to get them?

Thanks
