Brakes feel horrible.
Seems like I have to push the brake pedal pretty far until the car actually starts to slow down. Sometimes when this happens and i'm stopped for a little while, I push the brake pedal down all the way and hold it there for a few seconds. Then the brakes are fine for the next 5-10 minutes. Anyone know what the problem could be. Then I went on a canyon run with a few guys from this board last week and 5 minutes into it my brakes were pulsating. Is there something wrong with my brakes? BTW: Stock brakes, and 16k miles.

It does nasty things to Audi clutch master/slave cylinders...
...search the archives and you'll find a lot of discussion on this topic. SuperBlue killed my A4's clutch master-cylinder.
