I'm getting some occasional starting oddness (FL S8) and a regular warning (cleared by VCDS but comes back) that the coolant sensor is giving intermittent bad readings.
Also, do you have the part number?
Edit: Doing a "rummage" online it looks like it could be a very common part (059919501A) across the whole VAG range, or is it A8/S8 specific?
Here's a US supplier listing the D2 S8, but plenty are available locally for about £15 including clip and seal. http://www.europaparts.com/coolant-t...59919501a.html
And just had a quick look and I can see it's a green one in there, not sure about replacing it myself though.
