Default RE: amber light

Do yourself a big favor and buy the owner's manual--it's only $30 from the Audi website. Although no Bentley manual, you stand to learn a lot from it! I'm not that good with all of the warning lights on the instrument cluster, but if I recall correctly, that amber "O" with little dots on both sides is your brake system sensor (brake pads worn). It would make sense that your ABS light would also be affected.

Do yourself a bigger favor and get those brakes checked!!!

Seriously, spend the dough for a new owner's manual. If anything, it's always more impressive when/ if you decide to sell your car.

that light usually means that your front brake pads are worn.
