I have a sneaky feeling that mine are due to be changed! How many hours should it take someone with experience to change them on a C5 / A4?

You should be able to look up "book time" (factory service time) for it online, or call a dealership to find out. I would bet that with the car on a lift it would be a full day's work. You have to drop the entire rear suspension cradle before you can start to remove the TT. It's a good 1.5 hours just to do that, then pulling the tube from the back of the engine and all the other work, plus putting it all back together - not a fun or quick repair. I'd get the polyurethane ones instead of the rubber while you're doing all that.
