Default Intake manifold gasket replacement inverval - '87 S4

In the absence of any issues, what is the interval that people are following for replacement of the intake maifold gasket?

As well, I would think this would be a good time to replace knock sensors and vacuum lines as well, correct?


Thanks,
Norton

Never seen a leaking intake gasket...there is always something else wrong, under the manifold that requires its removal.

Besides your list:

Hoses to valve covers
Hoses to oil filler neck
Hoses to idle stabilizer
Throttle switch
Idle stabilizer
Leaking water cross-over
Leaking oil filler neck

I don't believe I have any issues at this time, but I will note the things mentioned for the next time the intake is off.

Thanks again.
