# Service bulletin Update Bulletin

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

## NHTSA's summary

3.0T engine oil level low. This Update is in effect until removed. Procedure is valid only for vehicles that show the 24V2 code in the ElsaWeb Campaign/Action Information screen on the day of repair. Vehicle must be in New Federal Emissions Warranty. Procedure must be performed within the allotted time frame stated in this Technical Service Bulletin. Procedure must be performed on applicable vehicles in dealer inventory prior to sale. On Audi vehicles with 3.0L TFSI engine manufactured within a specific period, it is possible that the dynamic oil level warning function is faulty. This can cause the oil level warning lamp to light up even though there is sufficient oil in the engine.
