Most of the time with a mushy pedal, I've found that
the system just needs to be bled thoroughly every once
in a while.  Especially with Audi's having a boiling
tendency on most of their fluids under "enthusiastic"
use, (read: track days) the boiling of the fluid can
cause air to enter the system.  Although this is an
extreme example, it's always good to bleed the system
before you spend coin on rotors or pads.

Just my $0.02
