Model(s) Year VIN Range Vehicle-Specific Equipment R8, R8 Spyder 2008 - 2019 All V10 Condition Customer states: The message "engine oil level too low" appears. Workshop findings: After a short driving time the customer concern can be confirmed, the message "engine oil level too low" appears. If the vehicle is then operated at idle speed, the message goes out and according to the service dipstick T40178A the oil level is correct. Technical Background Excessive sealer application on the engine. Production Solution Not applicable. Service Note: Try to reproduce the customer concern so that it can be clearly assigned to this TSB. The following measure must only be carried out, if all the criteria (model/type, chassis number, and engine/gearbox code) are met. Otherwise this solution won't work and repeat repairs may be necessary. In such a case, we may reject the warranty claim and the parts will not be reimbursed. 1. In this case, it is recommended to remove the oil pump and to check the strainers and the oil drains of the oil intake module for blockage. Page 1 of 4 © 2019 Audi of America, Inc.

Technical Service Bulletin 2. Because of excessive sealant application (for instance during a previous repair) the oil strainers and the oil drains of the oil intake module can be partially blocked (Figure 1), hampering the performance of the oil pump.

The replacement of the oil pump is not necessary.
