On Board Diagnostic
System (OBD)
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) ¢-4 in the
instrument cluster is part of the On-Board Diag ­
nostic (OBD II) system.
The warning/indicator light illuminates when the
ignition is switched on and goes out after the en­
gine starts and the idle has stabilized. This indi­
cates that the MIL is working properly.
If the light does not go out after the engine is
started, or illuminates while you are driving, a malfunct ion may exist in the engine system. If
the light illuminates, the catalytic converter
could be damaged.
Continue driving
with reduced power (avoiding
sustained high speeds and/or rapid accelerations)
Dri ver information system
and have the condition corrected. Contact your
authorized Audi dea ler.
If t he light illuminates, the electronic speed lim­
ite r may also be ma lf u nctioning. For more infor­
mation
¢ page 30, Electronic speed limiter .
An improperly closed fuel filler cap may also
cause the MIL light to illuminate ¢
page 188.
On-Board Diagnostics
Fig. 18 Locat ion of Data Link Connector (DLC)
On-Board D iagnost ics monitors the components
of your emission control system. Each monito red
component in your engine system has been as­
signed a code. In case of a malfunction, the com­
ponent will be ident ified and the fault stored as a
code in the control module memory.
T he MIL light may also illum inate if there is a
leak in the on-board fuel vapo r recovery system .
If the light illuminates after a refueling, stop the
vehicle and make sure the fuel filler cap is prop­
erly closed
¢ page 188.
In order to make an accurate diagnosis, the stor­
ed data can only be displayed using special diag­
nostic equipment (generic scan tool for OBD).
In order to connect the spec ial diagnostic equip­
ment, push the plug into the Data Lin k Connec tor
(DLC). The DLC is located to the right of the hood

CD Note
If the engine has been under heavy load for
an extended period, heat builds up in the en­
gine compartment after the engine is switch­
ed off -there is a risk of damaging the engine .
Allow the engine to run at idle for about two
minutes before switching it off.
Convenience key
Starting the engine
Applies to vehicles: with conve nien ce key
The I STAR T ENGINE ST OP I button switches the
ignition on and starts the engine.
Fig. 80 Ce nter console: START ENGINE STOP b utto n
Starting the engine
• Manual transmission: Fully depress the clutch
pedal and move the shift lever to the neutral
position.
• Automatic transmission: Step on the brake
pedal and move the selector lever to P or N
¢.&., .
.. Press on the I STAR T ENGINE ST OP I button
¢ fig . 80 -the engine w ill sta rt .
Switching the ignition on/off
If you would like to switch the ignition on with­
out starting the engine, follow these steps:
• Press the
!START E NGINE STOPI button with­
out pressing the clutch pedal (for manual
transmissions) or the brake pedal (for automat­
ic transmissions) .
• To switch the ignition off, press the button
again.
Driving
If the engine should not start immediately, the
starting process is automatically stopped after a
short time. Repeat starting procedure.
When starting the engine, major elect rical loads
are switched off temporarily .
After a cold engine is started, there may be a
brief period of increased noise because oil pres­
sure must fi rst bui ld up in the hydraulic valve ad­
justers. This is normal and not a cause for con ­
cern.
.&_ WARNING
-~ ·
-Never allow the engine to run in confined
spaces - danger of asphyxiation.
- Never turn off the engine until the vehicle
has come to a complete stop.
- Always take the key with you whenever you
leave your vehicle. Otherwise, the engine
could be started or electrical equipment
such as the power windows could be operat­
ed . This can lead to serious injury.
- Never leave children or persons requiring as­
sistance unattended in the vehicle. The
doors can be locked using the remote trans­
mitter, preventing people from escaping
from the vehicle on the ir own in the event of
an emergency. Depending on the time of
year, people inside the vehicle can be ex­
posed to very high or very low tempera­
tures.
CD Note
- Avo id high engine rpm, full throttle and
heavy eng ine loads until the engine has
reached operating temperature -otherwise
you risk engine damage.
@ For the sake of the environment
Do not let the engine run wh ile parked to
warm up. Begin driving immediately. This re­
duces unnecessary emissions .
@ Tips
-After starting a cold engine, there may be a
brief period of increased noise because the
