Engine speed limitation
If the [J indicator light turns on, the engine will
be automatically limited to the RPM displayed in
the instrument cluster. This will protect the en-
gine components, for example during a cold start
or from overheating
The engine speed limitation is deactivated if you
release the accelerator pedal while the engine is
at normal operating temperature.
If the engine speed limitation was activated by an
engine control malfunction, the [i indicator
light also turns on. Make sure the engine speed
does not go above the speed displayed, for exam-
ple when downshifting. Drive to an authorized
Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility im-
mediately to have the malfunction corrected.
© Note
The needle in the tachometer may only be in
the red area of the gauge for a short period of
time before there isa risk of damaging the
engine. The location where the red zone be-
gins varies depending on the engine.
