Default help with engine temp. gauge

When I'm driving down the road the engine temp. reads proper( needle stright up and down). But as I continue the drive the gauge needle will just fall to cold then raise back to normal then fall again at random. Has anybody else had this problem and if so is it covered by the Audi Assured warranty?
