Default Is there a low brake fluid sign?
Ok so a warning light came on my car a day ago with a logo that looks like a circle with another circle around it. Does anyone know what this sign means and even if my brake fluid is somewhat low does it even have a monitor for it?
If anyone knows please reply thank you!

Default that sounds like the brake pad indicator sign
low brake fluid sign beeps and is actually the word brakes. I't in the speedo or tach (I can't remember which one), not the trip computer.

Default Can anybody tell me what #8 is? My parents have an A6 and this comes on everytime they put it in
reverse. The manual says headlight/tailight malfunction, but all bulbs seem to work correctly. Thoughts?
