Drive with reduced engine performance (avoid
high
speeds for extended periods of time and/ or
fast acceleration) and have the malfunction cor­

On-Board Diagnostics
Fig. 4 Locat ion of Data Link Connector (DLC)
On-Board Diagnostics monitors the components
of your emission control system. Each monitored
component in your engine system has been as­
signed a code. In case of a malfunction, the com-
18
ponent will be identified and the fault stored as a
code in the control module memory.
The MIL light may also illum inate if there is a
l
eak in the on-boar d fuel vapor recovery system.
If the light illuminates after a refuelling, stop
the vehicle and make sure the fuel filler cap is
properly closed c:> page 233.
In order to make an accurate diagnosis, the stor­
ed data can only be displayed using special d iag­
nostic equipment (generic scan tool for OBD).
In order to connect the special diagnostic equip­
ment, push the plug into the Data Link Connector
(DLC). The DLC is located to the right of the hood
release c:> fig. 4.
Your authorized Audi dealer or a qualified service
station can interpret the code and perform the
necessary repair.
11. WARNING
Do not use the diagnostic connector for per­
sonal use. Incorrect usage can cause malfunc­
tions, which can increase the risk of a colli­
sion!

tion in the central locking system switch is used
or one of the door handles is pulled. The Auto
Lock function can be switched on and off in the
Infotainment system<=> page 29.
Additionally, in the event of a crash with airbag
deployment the doors are automatically un­

Selective unlocking
The doors and luggage compartment lid will lock
when they close. You can set in the Infotainment
system whether only the driver's door or the en­
tire vehicle should be unlocked when unlock ing
<=>page29.
