Technical features of the instrument cluster

The Audi A6 is equipped with an LCD driver information system.

The Auto Check system monitors the brake system, coolant temperature, fuel level and engine oil pressure.

The driver information system incorporates the following displays:

The speedometer contains an LCD display for the odometer, driver information display and Service Reminder Indicator (SRI).

The indicator lamps are integrated in the speedometer and in the tachometer.

The instrument cluster is controlled by a microprocessor and has extensive On Board Diagnostic (OBD) capabilities. If malfunctions occur in any of the system components, corresponding Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) are stored in the DTC memory of the instrument cluster. These can then be identified using the VAG1551 or VAG1552 Scan Tool (ST).

NOTE: The following adaptation (adjustment) functions can be carried out on the instrument cluster:
  • Adaptation of the fuel gauge sender resistance range
  • Adaptation of the fuel consumption indicator
  • Coding of language versions for the on-board computer and Auto Check system
  • Adaptation of the Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)
  • Adaptation of the odometer after replacement of the instrument cluster
