Hello, I have a problem with my Audi A3. After changing nozzles no. 3 and 4, nozzle two is now broken. I am currently on the highway. My question is, can I still drive 85km despite the broken nozzle? Or would it be advisable not to do so? My check engine light is also on. Does anyone have experience with such problems or can give me some advice? Many thanks in advance.
It's not advisable to continue driving with a broken nozzle and the check engine light on, as it could lead to further engine damage or unsafe driving conditions. I recommend pulling over safely and having your vehicle towed to a mechanic for inspection. Safety should be your top priority. Do you have any further questions?

The preglow light is now off after some waiting time ... should I still call a towing service? Or can I continue driving slowly and go straight to a garage?

Even if the preglow light is off, the check engine light indicates there could still be an issue. It's safer to call a towing service to avoid potential engine damage or unsafe conditions. Let me know if you have any further questions.
