Default S4 2004 cooling malfunction

Hi, my engine check light came on around 4 weeks ago. I went to autozone and they gave me an "insufficient cooling error", the car doesnt over heat and theres no visible signs of leaking. Any ideas?

Also are there extra radiators behind the engine ?

do you know what the fault number was? here's the closest code that I found which would resemble that...

if that's the correct code, then i would vote coolant temperature sensor

I cant remember offhand but that code number sounds familiar, I did take it to a mechanic who guessed it maybe the fan sensor. he reset the code and then it came back after a while. Ill take it back to him and ask him to fix it. Thanks for the reply.

Unfortunately i would take a trip to the dealer on this one, there is a TSB about that code that requires pulling the engine to change a cooling hose on the bottom side of the engine, hopefully thats not it.
