Unlikely both motors failed at once so fuse is your first check. Then, a common problem on the A6 which electronically is similar, is that it can forget it's motion adaption setting so just stops working. It basically needs to be reset and the adaptation done again and then it should start working again. Either way VCDS is essential for the fix. Check the A6 section for a how to.

Darkchildbati,

Did you check fuses 6, 9, and 40 on fuse panel "B", left side ?

Check #40 25 Amp fuse first.

See attached PDF.

My steering wheel colom was not working to when I have problems with the left side of the Canbus in my A8L . After pulled the Canbus plugs above the fuseboxes and insert them a few times in and out it went working again.....and aswell other moduls on the leftside worked again......
