[s-cars] Serpentine Belt Cover (!!??)

[Dave Forgie]

Fred (and Tom and Mark):  Yes this the small cover that I am referring to.
The wierd thing is that I have not seen this cover on any of the S-cars that
we have in our Vancouver club (about 15 cars).  I sense a conspiracy by the
Audi mechanics to "loose" the cover during warranty servicing. Or something.
