Why does Audi alarm the maximum speed of 4000 rpm?

Audi alarms the maximum speed of 4000 rpm due to the existence of a speed limit. Here is some knowledge about Audi: 1. Brand introduction: Audi is one of the oldest automobile manufacturers in Germany. Since 1932, Audi has adopted the four-ring logo, which symbolizes the merger of Audi with DKW, Horch, and Wanderer into the Auto Union company. 2. Main models: The main models include Audi A1, Audi A3, Audi A4, Audi A5, Audi A6, Audi A7, Audi A8, Audi Q1, Audi Q2, Audi Q3, Audi Q5, Audi Q7, Audi Q8, Audi TT, Audi R8, and the S and RS performance series.
I noticed that my Audi has a rev limit warning set at 4,000 rpm, which is usually due to the engine's protection mechanism activating in a cold state. When starting a new car with too low a temperature, the system prevents overloading the engine to avoid wear on components like pistons or crankshafts, hence limiting high rpm output. I often encounter this when accelerating too quickly after starting in an underground garage during winter; sometimes, false sensor readings can also trigger it, such as insufficient oil or a faulty temperature sensor. Audi's design is quite intelligent, aimed at prolonging engine life and ensuring safe driving. My approach is to let the car warm up for a few minutes before driving; if the warning occurs frequently, it's advisable to check the cooling system or run a diagnostic, rather than stubbornly flooring the throttle. Maintaining engine health can save fuel and prevent accidents.
