my car did the same cranking thing for a while, then i tryied gas from a shell, and it never did it again. don'y use fuel that has 10% ethanol in it (it should say on the gas pump) the price might look nice since its like 5-10 cent cheaper. my mpg on 10% was like 22, i used the good gas now i get like 28, maybe you should try that out first.

I've started using shell V-power too. I'm very happy with it.

I also have the same problem. Mine is 99 Audi A6 Quattro. I also got the brake pads checked and they are not so worn the guy told me.
Not really sure what the symbol on my dash was supose to be, I guess (O) look at the picture. Anyways it was my brakes. They were kind of low so that's what I thought it was, but when I went to change them, the sensor wire on one of the brakes was cut (I think that is why the light was on). I changed the brakes and put some cross drilled and slotter rotors on and now no light..
