just added some oil, however I noticed my power steering fluid, and coolant was at the minimum also.

Bad idea.They are contaminated now. Did you guys read the manual or follow warning on the reservoir?
1st rule, don't let Grease Monkeys touch your Audi. Good luck getting an appointment for a flush at the dealer this time of year. Might cost $125 for the hydrolic, $100 for the coolant. Doh! Make the Mobil shop pay.

Yep, sorry to say he contaminated his system and better get to dealer quickly...
I have known Audi owners who have destroyed the seals on a steering rack using the wrong fluid and it cost $2K to fix.
