ESC light came on when driving - then check engine light

2003 Audi A6 Quattro. The ESC light came on when I was driving, the car got a little sluggish then the check engine light went on. Drove for a little while turned the car on & off a few times and then the ESC light did not go back on but the check engine light remained on. Car felt fine driving at this point. Any idea what the problem could be and is it safe to continue driving?

Likley there is a misfire in one of the cylinders. Usually due to worn out sparkplugs or wires. A check by the local mechanic, using his/her computor will pinpoint the problem. Or go to your local auto supply store & purchase the little computor to connect to your car computor (under dash at steering wheel). This will allow you to turn off the light. Cost is about $170.00 (Can.)
Hope this helps!

Must move freely when accelerating, won't achieve full boost if waste gate sticking open. Check Turbo impeller turning freely, oil feed pipe for turbo can get blocked causing impeller to seize.
