I would take it back to where you bought it and ask them to fix it.

Thats not normal and you'll need to be extra careful if the temps drop even colder.

You are low an brake fluid -- top off to full line on reservoir, have brake lines checked for any leaks.

Sorry guys, wasn't around for a bit. It was indeed the brake fluid level! I appreciate your help! I have to say, I belonged to AudiZine for quite some time... Much better here
