Here's Why Malfunction Indicator Lamp Comes On In Your Audi A5
Malfunction indicator lamp or MIL, in short, is a kind of warning light.
It has only one job- to alert the driver whenever there is a problem with the system.
However, it doesn't tell you about the exact issue.
You have to figure that out all by yourself.
The MIL of your Audi A5 may come on due to any of the following reasons.
Lit-up MIL in Audi A5- 5 common causes
Problematic Gas Cap
Of all the problems that can set off your car's MIL- a loose gas cap ranks number one.
It’s quite easy to fix and will not cost you thousands of dollars.
Flawed MAF Sensor
MAF sensor works with the ECM to keep the air-to-fuel ratio within the engine stable.
If it fails, your Audi A5 engine might run lean or rich.
When the computer finds out about the problem, it would turn on the MIL.
Improper Spark Plug Firing
This is another major reason why your Audi A5 MIL may come on.
If you don’t replace defective spark plugs, they might cause harm to the engine.
Leaking Fuel Injectors
A problem with your Audi A5's fuel delivery system can also set off its MIL.
Ignoring this issue can cause catastrophic engine failure in your car.
Therefore, get your fuel injectors checked out by a professional and replace the defective ones.
Malfunctioning Exhaust System
The exhaust system is what routes engine emissions away from the passengers.
A malfunctioning exhaust system can interfere with your Audi A5 engine operation.
And, it would prompt the on-board diagnostic system to turn on the MIL.
In Conclusion
There are dozens of reasons why a car's MIL may come on.
If your Audi A5’s MIL is on, you need to take it to a nearby car service center so that the exhaust issue can be diagnosed.
