Default Guess the warning icon

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/99416/warning_icon.jpg"></center><p>The other day, in a heavy rain, I heard a beep and saw the above icon appear in my info display screen. It was yellow, which apparently means "warning". I only saw it for a second or two, but I think this drawing is accurate. I could not find this particular icon in the manual. I think it probably has to do with the rain sensor. I have the Tech package, which includes the bi-xenon's and rain sensor. Despite the appearance of the warning, all systems seemed to be operating OK. Anyone have a clue what this means?
Regards,
Mooselook

Thanks! I hope I never see this warning again. It's kind of aggravating that Audi doesn't bother to list it in the manual. It's not the most obvious or intuitive icon I've ever seen...

Default Had it appear once

Was strange, hit a bump pretty hard but everything was fine, then braked hard to stop and guess it tried to keep the lights level and got this error also.

Turned the car off and back on, error cleared and 6000km later, it never reappeared. It's almost like it got confused or something at that time.

Rode in my friend's B5 S4 tonight and funny how I really now notice the difference without the adaptive headlights even in the city with a lot of street lights.
