Stealth4

Posted the following over on the B5 S4 forum. Hopefully its something under warranty and I can drive the car at least to the dealer:


Driving home from getting gas I noticed the brake pedal was going all the way to the floor to get normal braking force. I carefully drove home and at the end on a deserted straight I did two 35-0 stops and the brakes worked, but I could tell something was off. When lightly applying the brakes they slowly drifted to the floor.

So I parked. Saw fluid on the ground (the "oh sh*t" moment - since I need to drive to see family tommorow) I took the wheel off, snapped a pic. Opened the hood and snapped a pic. I put the pics at the end of this post. Fluid was also dripping over the ground. Brake fluid of course.

So what do you think it is? ABS pump, master cylinder?

Nothing I can fix today - right?

Think this would be covered under the audi assured warranty?

Thanks :-( and Merry Christmas.

sorry the fist one is rotated wrong. Its just the wheel well.

Maybe one of the nuts for the brake lines came loose.
