Default Advice fvor Greenville, SC area?

I've used both the dealer and Pro-Tech, Pro-Tech is worlds cheaper but also much less convenient, I have a nagging problem with my allroad that they can't solve and I don't want to take it to the dealer if I don't have to
Many thanks!

the gentleman with the more experience typically works on the car, I've been somewhat satisfied with them but they do charge an arm and a leg and I've got twins on the way so I'm trying to cut expenses, the allroad is the new baby-mobile for us

when you hit the brakes, the esp, height indicator and abs light all come on at once
You're not hitting the brakes hard at all, just normal braking, the brakes work fine but there are times when the warning lights are on that the brake lights don't work
furthermore, the car has yet to adjust its height on its own (i.e. at different speeds), I don't know if that's related or not, I've recycled the dash light and you drive like normal again but then out of the blue all three idiot lights will come on again
the brake light switch was replaced but no change in the problem

I visited the dealer when I drove to Greenville, SC.

Are they planning on expanding the Audi part of the dealership any time soon? It felt like they were pushed into a shoe box compaired to the neighboring VW area.

I've got a current post on that already, so far they advise to repalce the brake light switch which has been done, someone else advised me to look for possible other opinions/mechanics in my area, which led me to this forum
