Audi P2210

What P2210 means on a Audi

On Audi vehicles, P2210 is logged when the ECU detects a fault in the AdBlue / SCR: “NOx sensor failure, Powertrain Control Module (PCM) failure, Wiring issue”. P2210 is a manufacturer-specific Audi code (the "1" after the letter marks an OEM-defined code), so its meaning applies to Audi and may differ on other makes.

Common causes & symptoms

Typical triggers for a AdBlue / SCR code like P2210 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.

P2210 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 P2210 stay cleared after the flash. Genuine faults should always be repaired, not just hidden.
