Stupid Sounds i tell you !
So now i have a squeek/ squeeks over every little bump. It sounds like the suspension.. Im thinking it could be because its the stock suspension in there and shes super soft.
Next sound is a click
When braking and gettin down to 0 you hear like a Click or a pop and thats it happens when i brake.
ABS squeeling!!!!!! Sooo stupid... How do you get this to stop.... It squeeks just at that pint where you have your brakes on buit not enough to slow you down a ton.
Help... PS. IM STILL WAITING FOR THE STUPID HAYNES MANUAL... Humm whats this like week 4

My brakes are acting up as well.
After a really hard brake and turn, now every time I press the brakes it feels like the ABS kicks in every time, or at least very sensitive. They "pop" a lot even if I gently press them. The ABS light isn't on though.
Any suggestions?

The "ABS squeaking" is in not abs, it is the caliper sliders. You need to lube the caliper guide pins. Frequent problems from spraying the wheels at the car wash. Don't do that. use a sponge and light rinse. The squeaking under light braking is fron the caliper following the disk ( the disk is always slightly warped, so the caliper moves back and forth - squeak squeak - untill you press harder and everything firms up)
"POP" sounds like worn ball joints or tie rod end. Sloppy front end can make all sorts of wierd noises.

you also get a film/residue build up on the break disc and this also makes a high pitch squeal and its a P.I.T.A.

Perhaps you should consider a Bentley Manual. Cheapest place is bimmerzone, direct link is Audi Repair Manual, Audi Service Manual for A4 A6 S6 TT A3 Sedan Wagon for $65. I've bought the B5 S4 and C5 A6 manual from them and they were fast with great service.
