audi noob needs a little help
I have owned VW since I learned to drive and now have upgraded to audi.
This is my first audi, got me an a4 1.8t Quattro b5. Just need some direction on the few issues im seeing:
1. To start the LCD pixels aren't all lit but im able to make out the symbol in the middle that looks like a rotor (brakes need to be changed)
2. ABS/Brake light come on when going 60-65mph, 3 beeps and blinks until im turn off the car. If I keep it at city speeds it never comes on.
3. LCD is also showing the text " BRAKE LIGHT", not sure if related to worn brakes or bulb that might need replacement
If anyone can provide a little info on these issues I would really appreciate it.
thanks in advance.

number two is a little more iffy. i'd imagine you have a bad abs sensor or tone ring on a cv shaft. the fact that it is speed related makes me thing it is losing the abs signal

Usually the ABS light coming on at speed means one sensor or it's corresponding ring is dirty. Just spray the hell out of both with some brake cleaner and see if it helps, if not you'll probably need to change the sensor.
