It's easy to do just real time consuming. If you have access to a lift it makes it easier, and takes little less time.

I need to drain the coolant too right? How much is Audi's coolant?

To make the work easy (for access to all the parts), I think that removing entire front support was easier for me (ac condenser was the only thing I moved to the side) I found this AW tech article very useful:

ECS will have to you in about 2-3 days. Also you do have to drain the coolant to do the water pump. When you do the water pump make sure all of the old gasket is removed from the area before putting the new water pump back in.
