Good to know some people are replacing them.
I chickened out and booked it in with a good local mechanic who changed the timebelt on my previous S8.
Lets see if he replaces the plates.

The local Audi dealer was asking just over £1300 for the parts alone (this was with almost everything including aux belt, water pump, plus RS6 idler) I'm hoping my mechanic can at least get the parts for less.
