Risk if Unfixed
If the gateway control module shuts down, your engine's power will decrease suddenly, which could increase the risk of a crash while driving.
Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will install a protective cover over the module to prevent damage from spills, and this repair will be done at no cost to you.
