2000 A6 Biturbo:: Brake Lockup!
 
So, has anyone else with a C5 had this problem...
For no apparent reason the calipers chomp down on the rotors after hitting the brakes like normal. The calipers don't release and you kinda have to hope you aren't far from home and you have to overpower the brakes to get there - i know, it can't be good for the system at all.

I imagine this could be dangerous if it happend on the highway and you weren't expecting it - it could send you off the road. I imagine this is some kind of electrical gremlin, but it's happend twice in the last week!

Let me know if you guys have any clue!

It doesn't sound like an electrical problem, it sounds like you have a sticking solenoid in your ABS module. Get it checked out quickly.
