Piston in front passenger's side brake caliper was creaking when applying the brakes, even when stationary. They attempted a brake service - which included lubrication - but this didn't resolve the issue. They replaced the entire caliper.

Warning lights for ABS controller, wheel sensor, and parking brake 2200 km out of warranty. Dealer diagnosed problem with ABS sensor for $155, but I needed the car back before they could perform the repair. Took the car to my own mechanic who duplicated the diagnosis and installed a new ABS sensor in one hour. Cost $150 including $99 part. Audi would have charged a second hour of time plus part cost. Looks like I would have paid a $155-200 too much at Audi.
