I have a 1996 A4 TDI 90 BHP. The glow plug warning light has started coming on intemittently. When I touch the brake pedal the light goes back off but may come on again later. No loss of power or other problems though I did notice that my brake fluid resevoir is on the minimum level -could that be it?

Anyone help as leaving car into an Audi dealer at this age is not really a cost effective option.

dont top the brake fulid up... more than likley the pads will be low and the fluid is else where in the system...

check the pads.. if low.. replace and watch it rise....

or you could have a leak...
