I think you have to take a heat shield off the underside to get to the cable, it's on the passenger side of the gearbox.

There is a Campaign on the Gear Selector Bracket.

Audi Centre Cape Town did mine about 3 weeks ago.

Might be worth checking if it pertains to your gearbox....might be the problem..
