OUR AUDI WAS PARKED IN OUR DRIVEWAY AS IT HAS BEEN FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS. OVERNIGHT THERE WAS A MODERATELY HEAVY RAIN. THE FOLLOWING MORNING AFTER STARTING THE CAR WE ATTEMPTED TO SHIFT INTO REVERSE BUT COULD NOT. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO REPORTED THAT WATER ENTERED THE COMPUTER WHICH CONTROLS THE TRANSMISSION AND SHORTED IT OUT. RAINWATER ALSO ENTERED THE MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER THOUGH A VENT HOLE. PARTS COST WILL BE IN THE $4400 RANGE AND LABOR $3-4000.
