Default Motor Mount Solenoid Failure

Anyone had a motor mount failure?
Independent repair shop shows fault code for right motor mount. Apparently the mounts are adjustable? There is repair kit with a mount and new wiring kit to repair from audi.
Is this a common problem? Extended warranty item? Anyone know?

Default He may have cleared the code and the question now is

was it a mount failure or a false code.

Two days no repeat! Maybe false code as you suggested.
I think I will clean it so it feels better?
