Told the garage to disconnect it after hearing back from them
The Auxiliary coolant pump / valve unit is providing very difficult to get. A new one is £915.77 plus VAT, but currently listed as no stock at Audi Germany which means they may have been discontinued! - Part number is 4D0959617C

You might get one from our sponsors, but that equally could either be noisy or become noisy pretty soon. Though there is a new one on US eBay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/301865323495 .
The best solution is "probably" to just replace the motor, if you "really" want it to work, assuming you can identify an equivalent. I recall reading somewhere about accessing it via the bulk head from the glovebox area, which sound a bit implausible.

I refurbished mine with new bearings, but the factory ones are odd sizes so standard replacements don't work. I had to turn the shaft down a tad with the lathe so they'd fit.
The weird thing about mine was that it ran the motor whenever the ignition was on, rather than just when the Rest button was pressed. It got really annoying so I just unplugged it in the end.

Yup, it runs all the time to help coolant flow around the heater matrix.
That eBay link posted by Moltuae; you could probably rob the motor off it, that's what makes the noise. Quote:

Yeah it was the running all the time, with what appears to be nothing on which was the biggest pain
HPsauce just seen that on ebay sent our sponsors an email tonight but don't hold out much hope

James, everyone else just disconnects it and lives without it.

It was a semi-serious suggestion. Probably fairly easy to hack into the wiring so that when "rest" is used the pump is energised, but otherwise isn't.

We are currently sold out of Aux water pump with part number 4D0959617C we do however have the earlier part with part number 4D0959617A it will fit to your car but the connector will have to be clipped off and swapped with yours, the plug is only a two wire so it is pretty straight forward.
