Re: B5 Recall ?
Re call is free check. Free claim from Audi UK, it cost me full price plus
labour to have them replaced last year though.

Re: B5 Recall ?
Hi,
Here in Finland is the same campaign going on.
The Audi dealer just checked and replased the bearing arms from both sides
of my A4 1.8T 2000.

Is this it ?
April 2004: Worldwide recall of 870,000 1996-1999 Passat, 1994-1999 A4,
1997-1999 A6 and 1994-1999 A8s for "free check for possible damage of the
rubber bellows of the front axle. The problem could lead to premature wear
and, in isolated cases, to the failure of the bearing arm."

Just checked the forums. The recall hasn't been made official in North
America yet.
