So I'm driving with my A6 and I hear a warning beep and this comes onto the display. Unfortunately, the majority of the pixels on my display are dead so I can't figure out what it's saying. I'm hoping some of you A6 experts can deduce what this means or what to do (besides the obvious of replacing the display).



Thanks!

 

As near as I can tell, PACMAN ate a 100 point bonus.
Seriously, I spent 5 minutes paging through my 2003 owner manual and cannot find a symbol that matches. Good luck.

 

Low on washer fluid?
The top looks like a "water fountain" spouting to the sides.

 

WTF! I don't have space invaders on my display. I'm always getting screwed.

Check your fluids.

 

updated with a better picture.

 

Yeah, wow, that's some of the worst pixel damage i've seen. This is a huge reason why it should be Audi's responsibility to replace the displays for free under a recall, I mean it's not safe! (what if it were the brake symbol?) But anyway, check your fluid levels and see if it's any of those.

 

is it one or several beeps? if one,can it be for the brakepads?

 

Yeah, my guess is washer fluid too (have that symbol on in my car right now). Does it appear the top "moves"? The washer fluid symbol looks like a squirting fountain - it is actually in motion.

 

its one beep.

i've checked the fluids so everything seems gravy then. i also did the diagnostic through the normal signs so i'm not thinking wiper fluid anymore since everything said ok. i've noticed some squeaking when i brake and just some strange stuff when i brake, but i'm not sure if i'm just being paranoid since this occurred. what makes you think it might indicate a problem with the brakepad?

 

there will come a yellow warning light when its time too change the brakepads.. take a look at the pads and see if there are any left..
