Good evening!

I know it's not a diesel, but as you know, there are experts here!

Today, for the first time, I used VAGCOM to check the error memory of my A6 (two weeks old), with engine code ASN, as a preventative measure. So far, I haven't noticed any errors while driving.

VAGCOM reports:
18010 - Control unit defective.
002 - Lower limit exceeded - Intermittent.

Should I be worried about that?

It is not uncommon for error codes to be stored in the control units of new vehicles.

Just delete it.

If he doesn't come back, everything will be fine.

You're welcome, I'm glad I could help.

It hasn't reappeared, at least not yet.
