2010 Q7 Tdi - Coolant Leak

When in for my first service @5000 miles in May, Audi performed two services that were required by Audi, one was replacement of the coolent pump and the other sounded similar. They detected a leak during service that I had not noticed and told me there was a service bulletin for both issues.
Seems to be a pretty widespread problem at this point.

My 2009 Q7 TDI received the following at my 25k service:
Water pump (059-121-012-A) and associated clips, hose and tie wrap.
Pump for exhaust gas recirc cooler(V400 19 45 55 99 130TU) and associated hose.
This was mandated by Audi and my Q7's water-pump had not failed at all but was replaced due to a higher likelihood of future failure. It is a common failure for any VW\Audi group vehicle with the 3.0 TDI engine.

You are quite correct had to take my 2013 audi Q7 from Audi garage to a private mechanic to have my fuel rail fixed, in turn out to be poor workmenship, when they were replacing one faulty injector they did not tighten the bolts holding the injectors properly but already asking for R18.5k to replace the whole fuel rail system

Funny how when you follow most of these threads you keep seeing the same old problem mentioned again and again and again... the techs can't diagnose the problem.
Having experienced this myself through my own local Audi dealership (I could write a book on them) I'm beginning to wonder if any Audi techs can do anything other than operate a diagnostic computer program because if it doesn't show up on screen or on a TSB they don't seem to have a clue where to start looking... or am I being harsh?
