    Any VAG heads out there know about this? Today for the first time the transmission is clicking away in neutral/park when foot is OFF the brake, is fine in gear and changes gear smoothly and quietly. The sound comes from under the selector panel trim.

    Are people too lazy to at least give a guess as to what's wrong?

    DonJose, the solenoid was mentioned to me on AudiWorld forums, hopefully its a simple swap and they don't cost a bomb.

    sounds like the locking solenoid which releases when you put your foot on the brake pedal to allow the gear lever move
