WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2015 Audi S5, 2014 Audi S5, 2013 Audi S5, 2012 Audi S5, and 2011 Audi S5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- The transmission fluid Manual Transmission Fluid (MTF) must be changed at specific change intervals (at specific kilometers driven) if the vehicle is equipped with transmission fluid temperature sensor 2 -G754- -1-. Refer to the 03 MAINTENANCE, DIAGNOSIS .
- The transmission fluid temperature is also monitored by transmission fluid temperature sensor 2 -- on these vehicles. An internal counter in the TCM -- starts to count when an increased transmission fluid temperature over a specific time period. The TCM -- stores a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) memory entry when the temperature is exceeded a specific number of times. The transmission fluid MTF must then be changed.
In both cases, after changing the transmission fluid, the internal counter in the TCM -- must be reset in the "Guided Function".
NOTE:
The connector on the transmission fluid temperature sensor 2 -- can disconnected only when the ignition is turned off. The transmission will switch to emergency mode if the ignition is on. The counter for the increased temperature will count up and a fault will be stored in the TCM -- after 10 minutes.
