Ok after looking over the wiper wiring diagram for your car it seems that the wiper washer intermittent relay is in control of the wiper motor. So with that I would say that your problem is there. It is located on the micro central electric as Audi calls it. Here is a pic of the it and what relay is what they are relay 5 and 6. Let me know how ti goes.
