Default '03 A6, PRND flashing.. TCM needs replacement.. advice needed!

My car: 2003 A6 3.0L CVT - 50,900 miles
(within the last year, I changed 3 tires and had my bumper and side panels replaced- not my fault accident lol.. other than that, I change the oil as usual.. nothing major)

I recently took my car in for a checkup due to the "PRND" lights flashing and Check Engine light on. Here is what was noted:

"Caused by Internal Malfunction of Transmission Control Module (P0706 fault code stored in TCM)

Scanned and recorded diagnostic fault code. Measured Transmission range sensor reading and found to be operating properly. checked fluid level - okay. recommend replacing transmission control module (tcm) than rechecking transmission shift operation."

Approx cost: $2200. (1 day's work + part)

Does this sound common? Should I buy the part myself and have them install it -- Audi confirmed that they will do it.. but I have no idea of the part number... Or should I just suck it up and pay the $2200... just thinking of my options after researching this problem online.. Thanks!

ALSO: how long is it okay to drive till I can come up with the scratch for that?!
