Default Weird warning light

Hello,

I still have not been able to find an owner's manual and last night I was driving up a steep hill and I got this light that had an exclamation point and what looked to be like an incline? Not sure... The light went away..The image I mean on the main LCD display.. I am not talking about the stability light
Anyone have any idea what I am talking about? When you press the check engine, it is none of the images that appear shortly after that. Car is a 2003 A4 V6 quatrro

thanks and I know it is a long shot but if you guys know a place online that has scanned parts of the manual, I would appreciate it because I am taking my car on a 5 day trip to the beach and I worry about not having a maual... Ebay has a few auctions and I am following them but nothing has ended yet.

Thanks again

Nikos

Thank you for your reply, I appreciate it!

At random times, I am getting another light now... It goes away when I turn the car off and start it again....

It is the light with the triangle /arrow /exclamation point.. ESP light... What does this mean? My differential is going bad? It doesn;t affect performance.... but I cannot turn it off once it comes on , on its own... Car can go 1 weeks without gettting it and then within 20 minutes can get it twice...

Is this a known problem with 2003 a4 v6 quatttro 6 speed?

Thanks for any help, I should be buying a VAG and manual soon but meanwhile I need to know what you think.
thanks,

Nikos

ESP, electronic stability control, keeps the car going where
you steer it. You might have a dirty ABS wheel sensor.

makes sense thanks!

I took the car to Myrtle beach... so it got dirty... In the same day car went for 80 degree sunshine to 25 degree snow storm within 5 hours of driving... Felt like I was in a uniroyal all season tire commercial,

thanks again!
