Check the relay near the motor. That is what is clicking, trying to engage.

You have either a faulty ABS sensor (aka wheelspeed sensor - one at each hub on the car) or your ABS controller is bad. You need to have the car scanned by VAGCom (the Audi diagnostic scan software) - it will tell you which part is failing.

Put the key into the driver's door lock cylinder, turn it to unlock twice (don't turn it to the lock position). This should reset it. If not, then repeat the process in the passenger door lock cylinder

it sounds like you have a problem with one or more of the relays sticking. locate the fuse panel usually on the drivers side under the dash board and there is one inside the engine compartment, and sometimes on hi end cars in the trunk. i would look for the relay to the top first. also the relay most likely to do with the electric lock. to determine which relay(s) have failed just touch the top of it when you are having a problem with it. it will be hot.

You'll need to remove screws that are by the door handle, arm rest, under door and side of door and then gently pull back on the panel as there will also be retaining clips attached and you don't want to break them. If needed, you can pull back the weather seal (can't reuse it, but it's not that important) and you will be able to access everything inside the door

the button is in the drivers door frame when the door is open there should be a button next to the locking catch. if this does not work the two flaps either side of the hood cover can be lifted up and a hex head allen key can be used to unlock the catches either side of the cover. i've had a problem with the button not working due to electrical problems locking the boot as the cover will not lift with the button if the boot is not locked to prevent damage.

pull switch and check connector on back unplug and connect try again, still not working from there u need to test the wires for power and do diagnostic from there

As noted in one of the earlier questions on the topic, it appears (will verify for certain after the pump is removed) the plastic resevoir tank has cracked and the hydraulic fluid was lost. Leakage was visible in trunk once spare tire removed.
Audi also noted this is not unusual for a vehicle this age, and the replacement tank is a $100 kit.

The answer is in the manual but, failing that, look under the passenger side sun visor where you will find a little ****. Push the ignition key into it and this will release the roof. Push back the hood until you can see the two panels, one on each side behind the seatbelts on the back shelf. These can be lifted and the mechanism inside will allow you to open the boot to pack away the hood. Good luck!

the electrical has a plug that goes into the side of the fan motor just lift the lock on the side of it and pop it off if this was helpfull plea rate

Did Audi scan for diagnostic codes? there are codes in the range P0500 - 03 and P0720 - 23 if there is no codes check for a bad wire from the MFI ECM, It is a white/blue wire (B9 on the ECM) to the internment cluster or maybe an other ECM. Hope it may help
