OP, just to be certain.. did you check the shelf under the steering wheel for the manual? When I bought my car used I had to show the (Non-Audi) salesman where it was!
It sounds to me like you're manually running the "check" cycle by pressing the wrench button. This may very well display the results in a different color than the post-startup test others are talking about that displays "OK" in green.
I have a 2006, so my whole display is only red and yellow and none of this applies to me.
Thx for the tip guys, but manual ain't there (what a weird place to put it anyway)
No, I know the wrench does a scroll through, but I was pressing the "check" button and was worried that I saw oil & coolant in RED and the OK was in yellow - I now understand that I will never see it in green as I don't have the multi-color display (sigh...) and that it's normal for those to show up in red, as long as they disappear...so I feel better now - thank you all for putting a stop to my sweat !!

I just changed the oil so I know that's not it. And it has coolant even though it's a little old so I'll possibly change it. Is it my sensors? I have an 06 a4
