In addition to the good advice above. don't buy the cheap dot3 brake fluid. check with the dealer on what came with your car. sounds like a good time to upgrade to the higher performancesynthetic dot 4 (5?) break fluid.

No audi is equipped with dot 3 brake fluid as far as im aware, only dot 4. Dot 5 is not needed, or recommended.
