transmission question
on my new 06 a6 trans, when it is in park and at an idle, when i press the brake i hear a click coming from the shifter. i know it is a disengage for safety but are you supposed to hear it?

Seriously, if you have retained normal hearing, you should be able to hear the various system relays click when they perform their functions. I'm used to them and normally don't even consciously notice them working, but if I don't hear one when I expect to, my antennae go up and I wonder what's wrong.

You all can thank Audi for this invention, due to their "unwanted acceleration issue or pedal misapplication issue" back in the 80's.
