Yup - checked.  Microfiche says 30,000 _km_.

It's in the maintenance documentation, but not the service
documentation.  For the ur-quattro at least, it isn't on the
checklist for either lubrication or major services and so
virtually NEVER gets done.

My record is 28 pumps - usual is around 17 for a first
attempt.  I then continue until the grease comes out clean,
which usually only a couple more pumps!
