# Service bulletin A012046201475310

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.

- [AWA\-13\-09](/bulletins/10124619.md), 2017-12-05, Service bulletin: FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM. Audi has determined that a faulty fuel injector may cause minor misfire conditions and, in turn, cause the Malfunction Indicator Lamp \(MIL\) on the instrument cluster to illuminate due to the presence of specific fault codes caused by this component. Please note that it is highly unlikely that the vehicle will experience an issue with multiple fuel injectors at the same time. The MIL is part of the on\-board diagnostic system. Please refer to the owner's manual for additional information about the MIL. In some locales, an illuminated Malfunction Indicator Lamp could cause the vehicle to fail an IM emissions inspection, and the vehicle registration application could be denied. Be aware that other conditions \(unrelated to the issue described in this bulletin\) may cause the MIL in the vehicle to illuminate. Customers should be prepared to cover all diagnosis and repair costs for these other, unrelated conditions. This warranty extension covers only the diagnosis and replacement of a faulty fuel injector.

MIL on with DTC P008700 \(Rail pressure too low\). The fault listed can occur under certain driving conditions. This is caused by an incorrect software setting. In some scenarios, such as extended idling or heavy stop\-and\-go traffic, this could cause a slight misinterpretation of the data and possibly an activation of the Malfunction Indicator Light.
- [A011374 2033211\-](/bulletins/10123895.md), 2017-11-17, Service bulletin: FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM:FUEL RAIL; FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE. Supersedes Technical Service Bulletin Group 01 number 13\-72 dated March 5, 2013. Customer may report MIL on and loss of performance. Under extreme driving conditions \(e.g. long idle periods or extended stop and go traffic\), high temperatures build up in the rail system and can lead to steam bubbles in the fuel. This causes temporary drops in fuel pressure, causing DTC P008700 \(fuel rail pressure too low\) to be stored. Freeze frame data will indicate those extreme driving conditions: coolant temperature is above 102? C.
