system (OBD)
System indicator light (MIL)
The system indicator ligh t (M IL) ¢.§ in the in ­

nostic System (OBD II).
T he warni ng/i ndicator light t urns on when the
ignition is sw itched on and t urns off once the
engine is sta rted and is runn ing in id le at a
stab le speed. This indicates that the MIL is
funct ioning correct ly.
If the light does not turn off after sta rting
the engine
or turns on while driving, t his may
indicate there is a ma lfunction in the engine.
If the indicator turns on, the cata lytic convert­
er may be damaged .
Drive
with reduced engine performance
(avoid high speeds for extended periods of
time and/or fast acceleration) and have the
malfunction corrected. See an authorized Audi
dealer or author ized Audi Service Facility.
The indicator may turn on if the electronic
speed limiter is faulty. For addit ional informa­
tion, refer to Q
page 30, Electronic speed

Electronic speed limiter*
Applies to vehicles: with electronic speed limiter
Your vehicle may be factory eq uipped w ith
t ir es that are rated fo r a max imum speed of
130 mph (210 km/h) . This is less than the
maximum speed of your vehicle. To reduce the
risk of sudden tire fa ilure and loss of contro l if
the vehicle is operated at excessive speeds,
your vehicle a lso has an electronic speed limit­
er . The elec tronic speed limi ter prevents your
vehicle from going faster than the tire speed rating . For more information ¢

If the engine control unit receives faulty veh i­
cle road speed signa ls, the Malfunction Ind i­
cator Lamp (M IL)
