Default Brake Failure

Help needed please, has anyone out there had problems with the brakes on their Audi sticking on ? or grabbing with out touching the brake pedal ? if so please please drop me a line or two.

I’ve had an on going problem with the left front brake inboard pad wearing out, they last between 14k and 17k Miles…. Oh yeah & the brakes momentarily applying on one wheel only without even touching the brake pedal ? fantastic.
Audi dismissed it for ages, like for 40k miles. Then after it had spent 5 weeks in the dealers, Audi technical said to fit a new calliper & pads, new ABS pump, vacuum pump, master cylinder and servo. Not sure if this has fixed the problem of the brakes sticking on, as I have refused to drive it after the left front brake momentarily locked on (again this had happened before) as I was driving round a right hand bend, trust me adrenalin is brown. So, anyone got any (genuine) similar problems. Oh yeah mine drive is (sorry was as I will not) a A4 2.5TDI Quattro.
