Vehicle care Technical data

Driver information display
On-Board Diagnostics monitors the components of your emission
control system. Each monitored component in your engine system
has been assigned a code. In case of a malfunction, the component
wi ll be identified and the fault stored as a code in the control module
memory .
The MIL light may also illuminate if there is a leak in the on-board fuel
vapor recovery system. If the light illumi nates after a refueling , stop
the vehicle and make sure the fuel filler cap is properly closed
=>
page 276.
In order to make an accurate diagnosis, the stored data can only be
displayed using special diagnostic equipment (generic scan too l for
080).
In order to connect the special diagnostic equipment, push the plug
into the Data Link Connector (DLC). The DLC is located to the right of
the hood release=>
page 25, fig. 20.
Your authorized Audi dea ler or qualified workshop can interpret the
code and perform the necessary repair. •
Electronic speed limiter
Your vehicle may be factory equipped with tires that are rated for a
maximum speed of 130 mph (210 km/h). This is less than the
maximum speed of your veh icle. To reduce the risk of sudden tire
fai lure and loss of control if the vehicle is operated at excessive
speeds, you r ve hicl e also has an electronic speed limite r. The elec­
tronic speed limiter prevents your vehicle from going faster than the
t ire speed rating. For more information=>
page 307.
If the eng ine control unit receives faulty veh icle road speed signals,
the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
11.... will illuminate. If this
occurs, contact the nearest authorized Audi dealer for assistance .
& WARNING
Always observe the posted speed limits and adjust your speed to
suit prevailing road, traffic and weather conditions. Never drive
your vehicle faster than the maximum speed rating of the tires
installed. •
Speed warning system
Overview
The speed warning system helps you to keep your driving
speed below a set speed limit.
The speed warning system warns if the driver exceeds a previous ly
sto red maximum speed. A warning tone will sound as soon as the
vehicle speed exceeds the set speed by about 3 mph (3 km/h). At the
same time, a warn ing symbol appears in the display. The symbol's
appearance might be different in some models.
Th e speed warning system has
two warning thresholds that function
independently of each other and that have somewhat different
purposes:
Speed warning 1
You can use speed warning 1 to set the maximum speed while you a re
driving . This setting w ill remain in effect until you turn off the igni­
tion, assuming that you have not changed or reset the setting .
Th e speed warning symbol
8 (USA models)/ 8 (Canada mode ls) in
the warning 1 display appears when you exceed the maximum speed.
It goes out when the speed falls below the stored maximum speed.
The speed warn ing symbol w ill also go out if the speed
exceeds the
stored maxim um speed by mo re than about 2S mph (40 km/h) for at
least 10 seconds . The stored max imum speed is deleted.
Setting speed warning 1 =>
page 27.

Driver information display
you have to stop immediately and turn off the engine. The coolant
pump is not working anymore--danger of damage to the engine! •
Brake system malfunction
A malfunction in the brake system must be repaired as
soon as possible.
If the warning/indicator light BRAKE (USA models)/ ((D)
(Canada models) in the instrument cluster flashes, there is a
brake system malfunction . A driver message appears as well
to explain the malfunction in more detail. The driver warning
goes out after about S seconds, but it can be brought up at
any time by pressing the
!SET] button again.
Stop the Vehicle and Check the Brake Fluid
- Stop the vehicle.
-Check the brake fluid level=>
page 289.
- Seek professional assistance if necessary .
Warning ! Fault in brake system. Contact
workshop
- Drive carefully to the nearest authorized Audi dealer or other qualified workshop and have the malfunction
corrected =>
&.
Parking brake Please get to a repair shop
- If this symbol appears when the vehicle is stationary or
after the ignition is turned on, check to see if the parking brake can be released. Drive to an authorized Audi dealer
or other qualified workshop as soon as possible and have
the malfunction corrected. If the parking brake cannot be
opened, then take it to an expert at an authorized Audi
dealer.
- If the symbol appears while you are driving, it is possible that the traction control or the emergency brake has malfunctioned. It is possible that the parking brake
cannot be applied. It is also possible that the parking
brake cannot be released after it has been applied. Drive
to an authorized Audi dealer or other qualified workshop
to have the malfunction corrected.
If the ABS system malfunctions, the ABS warning/indicator light illu­
minates together with the brake system malfunction warning/indi­
cator light~& .
& WARNING
• Always observe the warnings in~ page 2 72, "Engine compart­
ment", before opening the hood and checking the brake fluid.
• Driving with low brake fluid is a safety hazard. Stop the car and
get professional assistance.
• USA models: If the BRAKE warning light and the i, warning
light come on together, the rear wheels could lock up first under
hard braking. Rear wheel lock-up can cause loss of vehicle control
and an accident . Have your vehicle repaired immediately by your
authorized Audi dealer or a qualified workshop. Drive slowly and
avoid sudden, hard brake applications.
• Canada models: If the brake warning light (CD) and the ABS
warning light come on together, the rear wheels could lock up .,_

• Unintended vehicle movement can cause serious injury.
- When the selector lever is
in a driving position, the vehicle
may creep, even at idle speed. Therefore do not release the
parking brake
or foot brake until you are ready to move,
because power is transmitted to the wheels as soon as a driving
position is engaged.
- Do not accelerate while selecting a driving position . At this
time the engine must be at idle speed so that undue stress is
not placed on the clutches in the transmission.
- Remember : · even when stopped briefly with the automatic
transmission
in " D", "S" or "R", engine power is being trans­
mitted to the wheels. Your vehicle could "creep " forward or
backward. When stopped, keep the brake pedal fully
depressed and use the parking brake if necessary to keep the
vehicle from rolling .
• If the selector lever is unintentionally moved into N while you
are driving, take your foot off the accelerator pedal and wait for
the engine to return to idle speed before selecting a driving posi­
tion.
• Never shift into "R" or "P " when the vehicle is in motion .
• Never get out of the d river's seat when the engine is running.
• If you must get out of the vehicle , move the selector lever
securely into the P position and apply the parking brake firmly .

situat ions . Be sure to read the important i nformat ion about safety
a nd hee d the WAR NIN GS i n t his ch apte r.
Deployment of the Advanced A irbag System and the act ivat ion of the
safety belt pretensioners depend on the deceleration measured by
t he crash senso rs an d regis tered by the e lectroni c con trol u nit. The
amount of inflation of the front airbags can a lso be adapted to the
front seat pos it ion, depending on t he d istance be tween the respec ­
tive front seat and the steering wheel or instrument panel as reg is­
t ere d by sensors in the seats. Crash seve rity depends on speed and
deceleration as well as the mass and stiffness of the vehicle or object
involved in the crash .
On the passenger side, rega rd less of safety be lt use, the a irbag will
be t urned off if the we ight on the passenger seat is less tha n the
amount prog rammed in the e lec tronic contro l uni t. The fro nt airbag
on the passenger side will a lso be turned off if one of the chi ld safety
sea ts tha t has been cert ified under Federa l Mo to r Vehicle Safety
Standard 208 has been recognized on the seat . The
PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF
lig ht comes on and stays on to tell you w hen the fron t
Advanced Airbag on the passenger side has been turned off
=> page 201, "C hild restraints o n the front sea t - some impo rtant
things to know ".
& WARNING
To reduce the risk of inju ry when an a irbag inflates, always wear
safety belt s properly.
• If you are un rest rained, leaning forward, sitting sideways or
out of posit ion in any way , your risk of injury is much higher .
• You will also receive serious injuries and could even be killed if
you are up again st the airbag or too clo se t o it wh en it inflates ·
even with an Advanced Airbag=>

More important things to know about front
airbags
Fi g. 1 98 I nfl ate d
front a irb ags
Safety belts are important to he lp keep front seat occupants in the
pro per seated pos ition so that a irbags can unfold prope rly and
prov ide supp lemental protect ion in a frontal collision.
Th e front airbags are designed to provide add itio na l protec tion for
the c hest and face of the driver and the front sea t passenge r when:
• safety belts are worn properly ,
• t he seats have been posit ioned so that the occupant is prope rly
seated as far as possible from the airbag,
• and the head restraints have been properly adjusted .
Because air bags inflate in the b link of a n eye w it h great force, things
you have on your lap o r have place d on the seat cou ld become
dangerous projectiles, and be pushed into you if the a irbag inf lates .
When a n airbag dep loys, fine dust is released. This is normal and is
not caused by a fire in the vehicle. This dust is made up mostly of a
powder used to l ubricate the ai rbags as they deploy.
It could irritate
skin .
I t is important to remember that while the supp lemental airbag
system is desig ned to reduce the li ke lihood of serious injur ies, other
injuries, for example swelling , b ruising and m inor abras ions, can also
happen when airbags infl ate. Airbags do not p rotect the arms or the ..,_
