On-Board Diagnostics
F ig. 4 Loc ation of D ata Link Connector (OLC)
On-Board Diagnostics monitors the components
of your emission control system. Eac h monitored
component in your engine system has been as­
signed a code . In case of a ma lfunction, the com­
ponent w ill be identified and the fa ult stored as a
code in the control module memory.
The MIL light may also ill uminate if there is a
leak in the on-board fuel vapor recovery system .
18
In order to make an accurate diagnosis, the stor­
ed data can only b e display ed using special diag­
nostic equipment (gener ic scan tool for OBD) .
In order to connect the special d iagnost ic equip­
ment, push the plug into the Data Link Connector
(DLC). The DLC is located to the right of the hood
release
~ fig. 4.
Your a utho rized Aud i dea ler or a qua lified service
station can interpret the code and perform the
necessary repair.
A WARNING
Do not use t he diagnostic connector for per­
sonal use. Incorrect usage can cause malfunc­
tions, which can increase the risk of a co lli­
sion!

Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed in rev­
olutions per minute (RPM) .
The beginning of the red zone in the tachometer
indicates the maximum permissible engine speed
for all gears once the engine has been broken in
and when it is warm. Before reaching the red
zone, you should shift into the next higher gear,
choose the Dor S selector lever position, or re­
move your foot from the accelerator pedal.
@ Note
The needle in the tachometer may only be in
the red area of the gauge for a short per iod of
time or there is a risk of damaging the engine .
The location where the red zone begins varies
depending on the engine.
@) For the sake of the environment
Upshifting early helps you to save fuel and re­
duce operating noise.
