It's the blower motor sticking.

There is an excellent pictoral write up here: audipages Fresh Air Blower Replacement

I had same trouble with my 94 A8. Followed the above instructions so far, but even with offset screwdrivers, I could not get the motor cover off.

My solution- Spayed good amount of ACF-50 through the plastic blades. Also drilled small hole in the central plastic cover over motor, and sprayed more ACF in there. Turned the plastic fins by hand until motor spun freely. No problems since.

Hope this does the trick for you.
