One of the main reasons I bought my S8 recently was the gearbox was completely reconditioned by Mackie's and came with the £3k bill to prove it.
Even though the previous owner serviced the gearbox and looked after it, the auto still failed at 160k.
All I can say now its a comfort to have it done and the gearbox is stunning. very smooth and better than my D3 ever was.
If you have a good D2 its worth spending the money on it. These cars are made better than the ones that came after, were a high point for Audi and are pretty damn rare these days.
