I was unfortunate to get my 2000 A6 without an owners manual, and ever since a couple of days ago, when i turn on my car i hear a loud beep and a picture of it looks like a little box thing with a water fountain coming out of it. i cant really explain it but if someone could tell me what it is or direct me to like a page that has all the symbols that woul be great.
