Does the lower dash..... plastic piece that covers pedals come off alone...or do you have to take the whole dash off from fuse box down???? I saw there were 2 screws on the lower portion but when i took them out...the plastic panel covering the pedals didnt budge.

Yeah took the lower dash apart and pulled the switch out...looks like that may be the issue...i think its broke internally...just plastic.... called everyonee autozone pepboyzadvanced bennit ect no one carries it...online i can get it for $$10.19...ill have to see how much it is from audi tomarrow...since for some odd reason the dealership closes at 8:00 when everyone else closes at 9-10
