Default 01 A6 2.7T Brake Malfunction & ESP Malfunction Light

I've been getting 2 warning lights in my car. (2001 A6 2.7) The ESP or ABS light (when not on) and the brake malfunction light. It doesn't start with these lights on but will come on while driving. Once you shut the car off and turn back on the lights disappear. Any thoughts? Do you think it could be electrical and if so does it sound bad or could there be a problem with the brakes? Any suggestions as to where to take it to be checked in the north shore area of MA? Much appreciated for all help given!!!

Probably the ABS module failing. Very common. Get the module repaired.

You should VAG it. That diagnostic info would be very helpful.
