Default I have the same symptoms, however mine only occur when it's been driven in the rain for a while.

Is it the same issue, anyone else have a problem like this?

Default I just went through this...

Get the new Hitachi part (8D0-905-351). It supercedes the original 4D0-905-351 part (Bosch) and it's $200 cheaper. I paid $164.75 at my dealer.
