On-Board
Diagnostic
system
(OBD)
System indicator light (MIL)
The system indicator light (MIL)
¢4
in the instru-
ment cluster is part of the On Board Diagnostic
System (080 II).
The warning/indicator light turns on when the ig-
nition is switched on and turns off once the en-
gine is started and is running in idle at a stable
speed.
This
indicates that the MIL is functioning
correctly.
If the light doe
s
not turn off after starting
the
engine
or turns on while driving, this may indi-
cate there is a malfunct ion in the engine. If the
26
indicator tu rns on, the cata lytic conve rter may be
damaged.
Drive
with reduced engine performance
(avoid
high speeds for extended per iods of t ime and/o
r
fast acceleration) and have the ma lfunction
cor-
rected. See an authorized Audi dealer or author-
ized Audi Service
Facility.
The ind icator may
t
urn on if the electro nic speed
limiter is faulty
