I got problems!!
 
Ok first i noticed that when i rev up my engin. and then let of the gas the RPMs hover for like 2 seconds and then drops. Second i am eating threw break fluid!!! I filled it up like a week ago and now its empty again. I have no leaks or anything. Would putting DOT 3 break fluid cause this?

i dont think the liquid has evaporated over the last week.

Since when do you lose break liquid?? I seriously think you may have a leak somewhere.

well our cars can take 3 or 4 but i really think you have a leak. there's absolutely no way break fluid can evaporate that quickly. go to ebay and buy this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...TODAY.m238.lVI
this stuff is rly good. check all the lines and also check your clutch slave cylinder.

check under the rear wheel wells, it might be spraying from the rear breaks. don't ask why but my jeep did the same thing, i would loose break fluid like crazy, and there were no visible leaks.

Could be losing it through the clutch system too - if I remember reading correctly (and seeing as how I only have one reservoir on my manual transmission A4), the clutch and brake systems share a reservoir. Therefore, either system could be the cause of the problem that is draining your fluid.

isn't the reason your revs hover because audis have rediculously heavy flywheels?
