# Service bulletin A461347 2034387\- A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned. - Type: Service bulletin - NHTSA id: 10124505 - Published by NHTSA: 2017\-12\-05 - Manufacturer's number: A461347 2034387\- - Manufacturer's date: 2013\-07\-08 - NHTSA component: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; PARKING BRAKE ## NHTSA's summary Customer may report sporadically hearing the parking brake being actuated after the vehicle has been switched off. If the customer does not identify the sound as the sound of the parking brake being actuated, he or she may simply complain of hearing noises from the rear brakes. Ignition is switched off. Steering is locked. Park is selected. Parking brake is not engaged. If the electro\-mechanical parking brake is not operated for some time, the free play between brake pads and brake discs increases because of normal brake pad wear. The parking brake control unit performs an automatic correction about every 621 miles \(1,000 km\). On A8 models, the brake pad thickness is also calculated. ## The document - [NHTSA's copy of the document (PDF)](https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2013/MC-10124505-9999.pdf) - [If that address does not open, try this one](https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2013/MC-10124505-0001.pdf) The document is the manufacturer's.

Under certain driving conditions, the linkage for the waste gate actuation can encounter excessive wear which leads to play at the waste gate flap. This leads to boost escaping through a loose flap, which sets DTC P029900 \(Negative Pressure Deviation\).
