• 10035249Sep 1, 2010Engine cooling. Audi: mil on; rough idle; one or more of the following dtcs are stored-dtc p0300 (random/multiple cylinder misfire detected); dtc p0301-0312 (cyl. 1 misfire detected-cyl.12 misfire detected); engine may have reduced performance without significant loss of power or stalling.
• 10035270Jun 9, 2010Electrical system. Audi: airbag dtcs in module due to low vehicle voltage (dtc u000200, u015500, and u101500). This condition can be created by low battery voltage in the vehicle. The dtcs are incorrectly set in the diagnosis protocol of the airbag control unit. These dtcs do not affect the functionality of the airbag system. Improved airbag control software is planned for production.
