I will report back with updates to see if this has fixed the issue and give you some more info to feed back to your service departments.

Scmguru, it may well be a hard drive, I was assuming a hard drive would be solid state now , apologies if that's caused some confusion, by spinning disc I meant the old DVD nav units.
They said the same thing on my work order from about 3+ weeks ago.. Module 5F was reporting a sporadic fault and it was replaced and the module was insulated from the A/C..

Please let us know if replacing the 5F module resolves your issues and what firmware is running on it.

My replacement 5F module from a few weeks ago is running 726.

Apparently, a replacement part was flown in from Audi AG to my dealer (no idea what it is yet).. I am to bring the car in and will have to leave it at least 1/2 a day.. what a pain in the A**.
