My car starts with the first try, idles smoother than 99% of all the cars I've owned and appears to be running as strong as ever. Based on this experience, I guess I am one of those who has ignored the CB issues. I am tempted to continue doing so until some signs (CE light, rough idle, etc.) start to appear. Having said that, if this solution you are talking of proves to be effective and does not cost an arm and a leg, I am willing to consider it. So, show me the product and proof of performance and I'll tell you how I feel about it.
I feel the exact same way. Maybe the drop off has been so gradual that I don't notice it. In that case, ignorance is bliss. My car is still plenty fast to get me in a whole lotta trouble. If/when I notice the very first signs of decreased performance, sluggish starts, rough idles, etc., I'll gladly fork over there $1k to get the carbon cleaned.

Extended the warranty on DRC?
Recalled all RS4s, or are they just fixing those who complain?

Both? None?
Attached are the recall details...
