Audi A6 sedan's electronic throttle control (EPC) system mainly consists of an accelerator pedal position sensor, throttle control unit, engine electronic control unit, and EPC fault warning light. Throttle control unit not matched: This situation occurs due to throttle contamination, throttle damage, or throttle-related circuit faults. It is recommended to go to a 4S shop for maintenance and inspection. You can try to match the throttle. When all indicators on the Audi A6L dashboard are lit, shift into first gear, then wait for 20 seconds, press the accelerator pedal to the floor, hold for about 10 seconds, release the accelerator, turn off the ignition switch, and remove the key. What is a throttle: The throttle is a controllable valve that regulates air entering the engine. After the gas enters the intake pipe, it mixes with gasoline to form a combustible mixture, which then burns to perform work. It connects to the air filter at the top and the engine block at the bottom, and is known as the throat of the car engine. How quickly the throttle gets dirty depends on the quality of the air filter, the brand and quality of the engine oil used, the condition of the driving route, air temperature conditions, engine operating temperature, driving habits, and many other factors. Even for an individual car, it is not possible to determine the throttle cleaning interval based on a fixed mileage. The first throttle cleaning interval for a new car is the longest, but due to the continuous condensation of oil and gas in the crankcase ventilation pipe and intake tract, the cleaning frequency will increase. Additionally, different weather conditions can also affect the speed at which the throttle gets dirty.

How to Conduct Annual Inspection During the Six-Year Exemption Period for New Cars?

For new cars within the first six years of purchase, there are mainly two methods for annual inspection. Below is a detailed introduction to the new car annual inspection: 1. On-site Processing: The car owner should bring the required documents directly to the local vehicle management office to apply for the annual inspection label, which is free of charge. The necessary documents include the original and duplicate of the vehicle license; the ID card of the vehicle owner; the compulsory traffic insurance policy of the motor vehicle; and the tax payment or tax exemption certificate for the vehicle and vessel tax. If the process is entrusted to someone else, the original ID card of the agent and a written power of attorney signed by the vehicle owner are also required. 2. Online Processing: Using the mobile app "Traffic Management 12123" for the annual review of exempted vehicles is more convenient and faster. Due to the digitization of the annual inspection label, upon successful annual review, the system will issue an electronic certificate of inspection qualification, which has the same effect as the paper annual inspection label.
