i always warm my car up for at least 10 mins before i drive it, and one day out of the blue the yellow engine check light was on, since i was busy and havent had the time to take it to the dealershi[ immidiately, i been driving it for a week with the lights on, and just when i was driving it home today, i realized that my steering wheel was shaking pretty hard when i stop at red lights with my foot on the brake (its a Tip btw), but somehow when i stepped on the gas the viberation goes off, anyhows ..... my baby is going to the shop tomorrow, wont see her for a long time i think ...... plz do post if you have the same problem

In SoCal I just start in the morning and drive.

My ex-bf told me that if u want to know when ur car is fully warm up. (He has an 98' A6 btw) Just pay attention to the rpm. Right after you start the engine, the rpm stay kinda high, but after like 20~30 seconds, it will drop around 300rpm all of sudden. Then the car is ready to go. The figures might not be exact what I said because he told me that like last year. I hope it is true for all Audi cars.

Tested it with my Passat, winter time when I would leave the car for about two hours, I would come back the RPM when I would turn on the car would be over a 1000, in the summer it took longer...

it really isn't good to drive around with the light on when you don't know why it's on.

Don't waste time at the dealer... get it checked and cleared and watch it be something as simple as a loose gas cap.
