I have a 99 a8. Lately I’ve been experiencing a problem with my brake
light and abs light displaying whenever they feel like it. I also have
a problem with my calipers hesitating then all of a sudden biting down
on the rotor. These problems occur usually in the morning, and every
so often during the day. After being heated the brakes start squeeking
very loud when the brakes are applied. If anyone has an answer for
this problem I would really appreciate it especially if it’s a quick
fix

Put a magnet on your brake line to align the brake fluid.

On a more helpful note, is it possible that one of your brake
lines needs to be replaced? They can swell up over time, and
occlude the line, which might create the problem you are
describing.
