Default "Monpoly Man" warning light

2000 A6 2.8 quat

I'm getting the warning beep, then one of the animated logos in the center of the center display, but it doesn't match anything on the symbol list that I see.

It looks almost like the monopoly guy wearing a hat and mustache.

I definitely has what looks like a sideways
8" (or the symbol for infinity) with undistinguishable lines above and below it.

Any ideas? LOL<ul><li><a href="http://www.sjmautotechnik.com/trouble_shooting/warning_light.htm">I don't see anything here that resembles it.</a></li></ul>

Default Not that. (wrong location too)

This appears dead center, not on top.

Very bizarre. All fluids normal, all appears normal.

Default Will definitely do next time it happens.

It seems to happen every 2 or 3 drive cycles.

Default Partially

The Temp symbol is the only one even close in resemblance, but still probably not it.

This also happened immediately after cold startup once... impossible to be "hot"

Washer fluid level warning was on too, so I filled it, and now this other one comes back every few starts and I cant tell what it is.

Default That's not a temp symbol. Check coolant level on cold engine.

If it is indeed low this symbol lights and disappears as coolant expands with engine getting hotter. It is an animated symbol too.
