Amen, Nick!  It can happen in much worse locations.  Mine let go in an
Arby's restaurant parking lot in Hayes, Kansas on the way to the Pike's
Peak Hill Climb in 1998.  Luckily I was part of a caravan of 8 Audis and
had some very helpful friends along with me.

The exact same thing happened to another member of our caravan, Gary
Steinbru, exactly one year later in exactly the same Arby's lot in Hayes,
Kansas on the way to the same event in 1999.  The only difference was that
one line was the supply line and the other was the return line.  Some quick
and dirty engineering went on at both times.  Just imagine the likelihood
of finding Audi parts in, of all places, Hayes, Kansas - the absolute
center of nowhere.

Talk about coincidences...

Uh...  Fifteen minutes?  Not hardly unless you have the needed replacement
hose handy and all the tools, etc., that you will need.  Try two hours or
so under less than ideal circumstances.
