Yes, as I'm driving along with the seat belt fastened. Audi garage could not find the fault!!

Intermittent warning sound when travelling along. Moving about/pressing hard in to seat rear/pushing belt into housing alleviates sound temporarily.

Any suggestions please? Car was put on rolling road last week

I have an AUDI A6 Avant from 2005 . Same seatbelt problem occur after 190000 km. Under the passenger seat there is a electrical connector . When you disconnect the belthousing plug the sound will stop because the car computers interpret the disconnection as a "closed" seatbelt .
Let me know if it works with your car
