Default Regarding brake control module for 2005 audi A6

I see some on Ebay for VW and Audi, part#0 273 004 284.
This is used part. Will this fit for my Audi?
Does someone know the Audi Part# for 2005 Audi A6?
Someone tells me that this part fails quite a bit.
I will clean the roof drains today and also ordered the ZF Transmission fluid and filter.
This forum rocks and great folks!!

For this jind of things is the great forum, experience, knowledge and share so people can save some money. actually the products that Audi use to fix the carbon buildup is De-Carb (AD-44) from Granitize http://granitize.com/index.php?pageId=333, they use it in the vacuum lines with some kind of tool. If you can find it will be great and you will save a lot.

Default Regarding brake control module in 2005 Audi A6

what exactly does this module do?
I see a Parking brake error showing up in the dash.
As per VAG COM diagnosis, the error shows to be this
brake control module, says EEPROM error.
Was wondering, this must be an important function and
its replacement is necessary or not?
Any way to resurrect this module?

Does the parking brake still work?

BTW Your GPS antenna is bad, it was the first thing I had to replace, it's a pain to get the trim out of the way but easy to swap out.

Yeah, I was able to disengage the rear brakes with the VAGCOM as I replaced the rotors and pads. It seems to work but still says that EEPROM failure in the brake control module. Dealer tells me that it is risky that if emergency brakes are activated, the module may fail and cause the emergency brakes to lock up.
Right now, the emergency brakes do work. Not sure if the module is bad, then should the emergency brakes be working? What was wrong with your antenna, could not be repaired?? What is the cost of the antenna?
Was wondering if I disconnect the brake module and wait for like an hour and
reconnect, if it can fix on its own?
Is there anyone rebuilding this?
Also, the lowest price is like $334 including shipping to Texas.
Any ideas??

Default Regarding Parking Brake control module

The dash sign is line across P symbol.
VAGCOM shows it to be a EEPROM error for group 53 which is
the brake control module.
I think ABS is a separate module.
The emergency brakes do work but the still shows an error.

I was planning to do the following maintenance:
1. spark plugs
2. Fuel filter
3. Air filter
4. Serpentine belt
5. Front and Rear brakes
6. Oil Change
7. Flush out brake fluid.
8. Cabin filter
9. Flush out ATF fluid
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Check steering fluid, coolant, lube door hinges, sunroof rails & wipers, clean snow screen.

NOPE its the same module if you have a P can be the ABS module
