How do I change a brake light in an Audi a6? I have tried to remove the tail light casing but the thing will not come out. There are 3 bolts that I have removed but and I can feel it come loose but not enough to remove the casing.

There is tree kind of problems. 1) Your bulb is run out. There is two wires in bulb. Check it. 2) Check the fuse box is it all good. 3) You have problem under the brake pedal where is the button that's turns brake lights on.
On that year Audi (A6) the only two lights that would illuminate on your dash will either be for the brake light (top image in the diagram) or a headlight or tail light is out (bottom part of the diagram. So basically have a look at your lights, one of them is out.
No other lights on your dash have an "X" on them when illuminated.

It is the LED componet in the taillight, not the bulbs that are replaceable. I had the same problem and only solution is to replace the entire assembly.
I can't solve this problem, but have had the entire left tail light unit on a 2005 A6 replaced under warranty 5 times in 3 years. Once it was out of warranty, the dealer kept replacing bulbs and charging me $30 each, but it never solved the problem, even for a day (clearly looking to duck their lifetime guarantee on work they did).
Remove the tires, Remove the calaper bolts, (small heads on them 12mm or so) Remove calaper, Pads are setting in a holder. Lube new pads with litheum grease and place in holder. (look at old pads, one or both may have small metel tab on one end) If the new pads have the tab, put that pad where the old pad with the tab was. (ie. tab to the inside) Press pistion in with a 'C' clamp. If it won't go in easly, it may screw in. If the parking brake cable is hooked to the calaper, it probly screws in. Use large pliers to screw in calaper piston. Place calaper over pads and install bolts (lube bolts) Rember to pump brakes befor driving . to get a solid peddle.
