Audi P0C00

What P0C00 means on a Audi

On Audi vehicles, P0C00 is logged when the ECU detects a fault in the powertrain: “Drive motor generator power inverter control module failure”. P0C00 is a generic SAE code — see the universal P0C00 page too.

Common causes & symptoms

Typical triggers for a powertrain code like P0C00 include faulty or ageing sensors, wiring/connector faults, a clogged or removed component, or a value drifting outside the ECU's expected window. Symptoms range from a check-engine light only, to limp mode, rough running, higher consumption or failed emissions tests.

P0C00 and ECU tuning

When a Audi has had hardware changed for off-road/motorsport use (for example a removed DPF or EGR), the related monitor must be disabled in the ECU map or the code re-appears. Softechpro Solutions performs DPF/EGR/AdBlue/DTC off and recalculates the checksum, so codes like P0C00 stay cleared after the flash. Genuine faults should always be repaired, not just hidden.
