I recently changed my own oil in my Audi A8 and now the maintenance light won't go off. How can I reset it so it doesn't keep reminding me to take it in for service?
ReplyTo reset the maintenance light on your Audi A8, start by pressing and holding the '0.0' button on your instrument cluster for 10 seconds. This will bring up a menu where you can navigate to 'Service Reminder Reset' and select 'OK' to reset the light. If this doesn't work, there may be an issue with the oil change indicator sensor and you should take it to a professional for further diagnosis.
First, make sure you've properly reset the oil change interval after changing your oil. If that doesn't work, try disconnecting the negative battery cable for a few minutes and then reconnecting it. This will reset any electronic systems in the car, including the maintenance light. If the light still doesn't turn off, you may need to replace the sensor or take it to a mechanic for assistance.
I've had this issue before and found that simply driving the car for a few miles usually resets the maintenance light. Sometimes it takes a few days, but as long as you've properly reset the oil change interval, the light should eventually turn off on its own.
