What model/year are you referring to? Up through the 2002 models, I don't
believe the stalk is used to reset the trip meter - there is a button mounted
on the instrument cluster for that purpose.
Perhaps it is time to read the fine manual?

There is also a trip mileage counter on the dash, which is supposed to
be reset along with time, fuel economy, etc. when pressing *and holding*
the button on the stalk. Just pressing it switches between the "trip"
data and the "lifetime" data.

Really? Again, what model/year? The only trip meter on the B5 A4/S4 is
directly adjacent to the odometer, and is cleared with a dash-mounted button,
not the stalk...
