I seem to remember that warning can come up on that model A4, if one of the brake light bulbs has gone, as well as it warning about worn pads.

Worth checking that first.

Thanks guys. Safe (ish) to drive anyway. I'll check brake lights but pad wear would probably be the problem.

It's the warning light for the front pads, depending on your driving style you could get months out of them yet.
