Introduction
The trip computer gives you information on
current and average fuel mileage, average
speed, fuel range and driving time .
Fig. 8 T rip comp ute r 1
The fo llow ing informa tion is cont inuo usly
eva luated by the trip compu ter and can be dis
p layed sequentia lly in the instrument cl uster
d isplay:
Fuel range
The estimated c ruising ra nge in miles (km)
appears in the d isplay . The disp lay changes in
increments of 6 miles (10 km) .
Average fuel mileage
The average fue l economy in MPG (l/ 100 km)
since you last clea red the memory appears in
t his display .
Current fuel mileage
The instantaneous fuel consumption in miles
pe r gallon (l/ 100 km) is shown in this d isp lay .
When the ve hicle is stationary, the most re
cent fuel consumpt io n is displayed.
Average speed
The average speed in mph (km/h) since the
last time the display was reset appears i n the
d isp lay.
Elap sed t ime
The length of time that you have been driving

On-Board Diagnostic
system (OBD)
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) &ii in
the instrument cluster is part of the On-Board
Diagnostic (OBD II) system.
T he warning/indicator light ill uminates when
the ignition is switched on and goes out after
the engine starts and the id le has stabilized.
This 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 driv
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 il luminates, the electronic speed
limiter may also be malfunctioning. For more
information¢
page 31, Electronic speed
limiter.
An improperly closed fuel filler cap may also
cause the MIL light to illuminate
¢page 178.

malfunction, the component will be identified
and the fault stored as a code in the control module memory.
The MI L light may a lso illuminate if there is a

tem . If the light illuminates after a refuelling,
stop the veh icle and make sure the fue l filler
cap is properly closed ¢
page 178.
In o rder to make an accurate diagnosis, the
stored data can only be displayed using spe
cial diagnostic equipment (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 release ¢
fig. 24.
Your authorized Audi dealer or a qualified
service station can interpret the code and per
form the necessary repair .
A WARNING
Do not use the diagnostic connector for
personal use. Incorrect usage can cause
malfunctions, which can increase the risk
of a coll is ion!
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) . T his is less than the
maximum speed o f yo ur vehicle. To reduce the
risk of s udden tire failure and loss o f control if
the vehicle is operated at excessive speeds,
your vehicle also has an electronic speed limit
er. The electronic speed limiter prevents your
veh icle from going faster than the tire speed
rating. For more informat ion ¢
page 207 .
If the engine control unit rece ives fau lty vehi
cle roadspeed signa ls, the Ma lfunction Indica

curs, contact the nearest author ized Audi
deale r for assistance .

A WARNING
- Never use dayt ime running lights to see
where you are going. They are not bright
enough and w ill not let you see far
enough ahead for safety, especially at
dusk or when it is dark . Always switch on
the low beams at dusk or when it is dark.
- Automatic headlights are only intended
to assist the dr ive r. T hey do not relieve
the driver of his responsibility to check
the headlights and to tu rn them on man
ually acco rding to the c urrent light and
visibili ty cond itions. For example, fog
and rain cannot be detected by the light
sensors . So a lways switch on the head
lights under these weather cond itions
and when driving in the dark
io .
-Crashes can happen when yo u cannot see
the road ahead and when you cannot be
seen by other motorists .
- Always tur n on t he headlights so that
you can see ahead and so that o thers
c a n see yo ur ca r from the ba ck.
- Please obse rve lega l regu lations whe n
us ing the light ing systems descr ibed .
(D Tips
-The light sensor for headlight control is
l ocated in the rear v iew m irror mount .
Do not apply a ny stic kers to the w ind-
Clear vis ion 43
shield in th is area to p revent malfunc
tions or fai lures.
- Some exter io r light ing funct ions can be
adjusted in the d river informat ion sys
tem
~ page 24.
- If you remove the ignition from the igni
tion lock while the headlights are still
on, a buzzer w ill sound as long as the
dr iver's door is open to rem ind you to
t u rn off the lights.
- Always observe the specific loca l regula
tions for your area as to when to use your
lights.
- With automatic headlights, the high
beam function is also available, but w it h
one restrict ion:
If you have not sw itched
t he high beams back to low beams dur
ing automatic headlight operation (fo r
example, afte r d riving throug h a tunnel),
only the low be ams come on the next
t ime au tomatic headlights are switched
on. To use the high beams, you firs t have
to pull the high beam lever back and
then push the leve r forward again.
- In coo l or damp weather, the inside of
the headlights, turn signals and tail
lights can fog over due to the tempera
ture difference between the inside and
outside. They w ill clear shortly after
sw itching them on. This does not affect
the se rv ice life of t he lig hti ng .
Adaptive light
