Yes, them or autoecu.com are alternatives but not 100%

If you check out the various Audi and VW forums around on this issue (vwvortex, bentley publishers, audizine, etc) you'll find several stories of the "fixes" not working, or working for a couple months then failing again, people having to send their units back several times, etc. It's enough that I'd thought I'd post this alternative to people who'd rather not take a $250 gamble.

Don't have any part numbers

I'm just passing along this info from another Audi owner. Hopefully it's not BS.

It's possible, although the parts guy confirmed the CM price, not the whole unit

Maybe he was confused? Let's see what qfrog says tomorrow.

8E0998375 or 8E0998375A repair kit is $538 from my dealer. Must be true. Yay! Still, way too much...

Re: I'll check etka tomorrow, but I dont remember any recent changes

Please do... Interested in what you find. Checked with parts guys in two Connecticut dealerships, and they knew nothing about this. Could be a delay in info-trickle down from AoA.
Thanks;
