Hello Don , Audi's have had many issues with the oil sensor. also, at times the wiring can be bad or chafed or chewed on from a mouse or something. after working at an Audi dealer for so long I have seen all sorts of issues, but your issue is localized to the oil level sensor, it is not reading correctly . hope this helps, Lou .
