Thanks for the update, i took my vehicle to the dealer for this. They had the vehicle for almost 3 days. Not sure if they broke something or had to order additional parts.

All my service advisor had to say was that the parts were not available and they had to order it.

So that Audi can accurately track the number of customers/vehicles affected, the dealers do not keep the parts on hand. They have to be ordered and delivered from a central location.
