Outside temperature display
Fig. 11 Display : outside te mperature
At temperatures below 41 °F (+S °C), a snow­
flake symbol appears in front of the tempera­ ture display . It is intended to remind the driv ­
er to pay spec ial attent ion to
ic e on the roa d.
If your vehicle is stat ionary or if you are driv­
ing at very low speeds, the temperature dis­
played may be slightly higher than the actual
temperature outside due to the heat radiating
from the eng ine .
The unit of measurement for the temperature
can be set in either °For in °Con the MM I* or
on the radio control un it . The outside temper­
ature display automatically shows the unit of
measurement that has been set. For addition­
a l information, see the MMI* or the radio in­
struction manua l.
_& WARNING
- Never use the outside temperature d is ­
play to determine if a road surface is icy
or not. Keep in mind that road surfaces,
especially bridges and overpasses, could
be ice covered and slippery even at an
outside temperature above 41 °F (+S
0 ().
-Always remember, even if the "snow­
flake" symbol ( ice warn ing) does not ap­
pear i n the display, blac k ice could be on
the road.
- Always reduce you r speed and drive with
special care in cold weather conditions
when the chance of encountering icy
road s urfaces increases .
'
(D Tips
-If the vehicle is stationary, or if you are
dr iving at a very low speed, the tempera­
t u re shown in the d isp lay m ight be
slightly h igher than the actual outside
temperat ure. Th is is caused by the heat
being radiated from the engine .

Trip computer
Introduction
The trip computer gives you information on
current and average fuel mileage, average
speed, fuel range and driving time.
Fig. 16 Trip computer display: Average fue l mi leage
T he following information is con tinuously
evaluated by the trip computer and can be dis­
played sequentially in the instrument cluster
display:
Fuel range
The estimated cruising range in miles (km)
appea rs in the display. This tells you how far
your vehicle will be ab le to travel on the cur­
rent tank of fuel and with the same driving
style. The display changes in increments of 6
miles (10 km).
T he cruising range is calculated based on the
fuel consumption for the last 18 miles
(30 km). If you drive conservatively, the cruis­
ing range will increase.
Average fuel mileage
T he average fuel economy in MPG (l/100 km)
since you last cleared the memory appears in
this display. You can use this display to adjust
your driving technique to achieve a desired
mileage.
Current fuel mileage
T he instantaneous fuel consumption in m iles
per gallon ( l/100 km) is shown in this display.

On-Board Diagnostic
system (OBD)
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) flllifi in
the instrument clus ter
9 page 13, fig. 8 is
part of the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD II) sys­
tem .
The warning/indicator light illuminates whe n
the ign ition is switched on and goes out after
the engine starts and the idle has stabilized. T
his indicates that the MIL is working proper­
ly .
If the light does not go out after the engine
is started, or illuminates while you are dr iv­
ing, a malfunction may exist in the engine sys ­
tem. If the light illuminates, the catalytic con­
verter could be damaged.
Continue driving
with reduced power (avoid­
ing sustained high speeds and/or rapid accel­
erations) and have the condition corrected.
Contact your authorized Audi dealer .
If the light illum ina tes, the electronic speed
limiter may also be mal functioning. For more
information ¢
page 2 7, Electronic speed
limiter .
An improperly closed fuel filler cap may also
cause the MIL light to illuminate
¢ page 234.
On-Board Diagnostics
Fig. 23 Location of Data Link Connector (OLC)
On-Board Diagnostics monitors the compo­
nents of your em iss ion contro l system . Each
monitored component in your engine system
has been assigned a code . In case of a mal­
function, the component will be identified
and the fault stored as a code in the control
module memory.
T he MIL light may also illuminate if there is a
leak in the on-board fuel vapor recovery sys­
tem . If the light illuminates after a refueling,
stop the vehicle and make sure the fuel filler cap is properly closed¢
page 234. .,..

In o rder to make an accu rate diagnosis, the
stored data can only be displayed using spe­
cial diagnostic eq uipment (gener ic scan tool
for OBD).
I n o rder 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 re lease
c:> fig. 23.
Your authorized A udi dealer or qualified work­
shop can interpret the code and perform the necessary repa ir.
Electronic speed
limiter
Your veh icle may be factory equipped with
tires that are rated for a maximum speed of
130 mph (210 km/h) . Th is is less than the
maximum speed of you r vehicle. To reduce the
ri sk of s udden tire failure and loss of control if
t he veh icle is ope rated at excessive speeds,
your vehicle also has an electronic speed lim it ­
er . The electronic speed limiter prevents yo ur
ve hicle from going faster than the tire speed
rating. For more informat ion
c:> page 263 .
If the engine contro l unit receives fa ulty vehi ­
cle road speed signals, the Malfunction Indi­
cator Lamp (MIL)
¢1111ij) will i llum inate. If t his
occ urs, contact the nearest authorized Aud i
dealer for assistance.
A WARNING
Always observe the posted speed limits
and ad just you r speed to suit p revailing
road, t raff ic and weather conditions. Never
drive your vehicle faster than the maxi­
mum speed rating of the tires insta lled.
Speed warning system
Overview
The speed warning system helps you to keep
your driving speed below a set speed limit.
The speed warning system wa rns if the driver
exceeds a prev iously stored maxim um speed.
A warning tone will sound as soon as the vehi-
Dri ver information di spla y 2 7
cle speed exceeds the set speed by about
3 mph (3 km/h). At the same time, a warning
symbol appears in the display. The symbo l's
appearance might be different in some mod­
els.
The speed warning system has two warning
thresholds that funct ion independent ly of
each other and that have somewhat different purposes:
Speed warning 1
You can use speed warning 1 to set the maxi­
mum speed while you are driving. This setting
will remain in effect until yo u turn off the ign i­
tion, assuming that you have not changed or reset the setting.
The . (USA mode ls)/ . (Canada models)
speed warning symbo l in the warning 1 dis­
play appears when you exceed the maximum
speed . It goes out when the speed falls be low
the stored maximum speed .
The speed warning symbol will also go o ut if
the speed exceeds the stored maximum speed
by more than about 2S mph (40 km/h) for at
least 10 seconds . The stored max imum speed
is deleted.
Speed w arning 2
Storing warning 2 is recommended if yo u al­
ways want to be reminded of a certain speed,
for example whe n you are trave ling in a coun­
try that has a genera l maximum speed limit,
o r i f you do not want to exceed a specified
speed for wi nte r tir es.
The . (USA models) . (Canada models)
speed warning 2 symbol appears in the dis ­
play when yo u exceed the sto red speed limit.
Unlik e warning 1, it will not go out unt il the
vehicle speed drops below the s to red speed
li mi t.
