Had similar in my previous A4 but left it because it didn't make any difference to the AC
In your case, it depends which motor has failed. I think there are five, and have varying levels of complexity.
I'd also reconsider your "specialist" and look elsewhere based on that assessment.

Hiya. I've got a problem with 'clicking' under the dashboard of my S5, 2007.
I took it to a local Audi specialist where they and came back with a failed heater flap valve/ motor.
They couldn't give me a price on replacement as they haven't done one before. Quoted anything from 3 to 10 hours.
The part alone is £165.
I'm thinking of having a go myself so if anyone has had the same problem and managed to fix it, I would appreciate any advice.
Many thanks.
Paul.

Thank you very much kh904.
I did manage to get the offending flap motor out in the end.
Luckily It was on the passenger side. By removing the glove box, heater motor and various other parts, we found the flap motor and unbolted it, it was mounted on the side of the air distribution unit.
The motor was working perfectly but the bracket it was mounted on was broken. A spigot which mounts a sprocket gear had snapped off. The gear engages with an air box flap for the passenger side.
I found it difficult to source a new part so tried repaired it using Araldite and a V shaped steel plate on the reverse side.
We put everything back together under the dashboard and tested it, it worked fine...and no more clicking. 😊
