What does the Audi oil indicator light mean?
1 Answers
Audi's oil indicator light coming on means that the oil level is too low, and an oil warning light will illuminate on the dashboard. Other possible scenarios include: Blockage in the lubrication circuit, clogged oil pan strainer, unqualified oil filter, malfunctioning oil pump, turbocharger pressure leakage, incorrect oil viscosity selection (too low viscosity that doesn't meet engine manufacturer's design requirements), or water contamination in the oil. Classification of engine oils: Conventional mineral oil, semi-synthetic oil, and full synthetic oil. Mineral oil is the most commonly used lubricant on the market. Synthetic oil uses semi-synthetic base oil. Full synthetic oil represents the highest grade among engine oils.
