ABS sensor somehow misaligned or something. Remove wheels, inspect both sensors and make sure they are clean and inserted fully. Also make sure that the Axel you installed has the serrated "teeth" (for lack of a better description) properly located. Also check the wires and connector that lead to the sensors.

Default Some place was selling rebuilt Audi axles w/the wrong ABS rings on them...

# of teeth was incorrect, which would cause the ABS system to malfunction. Something to think about and check when you buy rebuilt axles...

Default Check the "Teeth" for cleanliness, check the sensor depth...

Either of those could cause problems too.
