There was no jest! I'm hoping that, as suggested, a parking brake motor is available seperately, but yes if push comes to shove, some gloss black high temp will come out to play!

The ECU for the EPB can also play up and cause many faults, so if noting else resolves it then take a look at that. Second hand ones are about £150 so god knows how much a new Audi one is!

The motor can be separated, so worth popping it off and having a look inside.

How complicated can a hall sensor be?
It looks like one connector and 2 bolts, I'll update this once I'm in there!

For info, I queried Murrays direct, who I use very regularly, they could do a pukka TRW black S8 caliper for £268 plus the VAT as an exchange. The parking brake on it's own is £250 plus VAT so a bit of a no brainer here.
Audi price £607 plus VAT for exactly the same part. The fault hasn't come back today so I'll keep a watching brief on this one!
