What is the EPC warning light in an Audi A6?

I noticed the EPC warning light turned on in my Audi A6. What does this mean and how should I handle it?

The EPC light stands for Electronic Power Control and it indicates an issue with your car's electronic throttle control system. If you experience a loss of acceleration or your engine does not respond to the gas pedal, you should take your car to a mechanic for a diagnosis.

In some cases, a simple fix like cleaning the throttle body or replacing a worn throttle body sensor can resolve the EPC warning light. If you are comfortable with car maintenance, you can try this before taking it to a mechanic.
