Dear Ronny
Had mine a couple of weeks ago, been in to Audi who agreed that they had already replaced mine and said they would make a claim on Audi UK. I might be eligible for a refund on the parts ! The part will have been noticed if you have a regular service so it should not be a safety issue just premature aging.

Re call is free check. Free claim from Audi UK, it cost me full price plus
labour to have them replaced last year though.
