It seems it's a fairly common problem. Does anyone have a cause and remedy
for this? I hope I don't have to buy a new seat...I love the heated seats in

Thanks, I looked, but didn't see any recalls for 2001 Audi A4 at all. If
anyone has any more info, I'd be grateful to hear about it. Does anyone know
if the seat has to be replaced to fix a problem like this?
