Audi A4L tire pressure checking method: Press the "CAR" button on the instrument panel to view the tire pressure status. To reset the tire pressure, after pressing CAR, rotate the central circular button to access the maintenance reset interface, where you'll find options including oil level and tire pressure reset - select tire pressure reset. The Audi A4L is a model under the Audi brand with body dimensions of 4761mm in length, 1826mm in width, 1439mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2869mm. The Audi A4L features a stylish and dynamic exterior with smooth lines; its interior boasts exquisite craftsmanship and good configurations; offers excellent sound system performance; and provides spacious, practical cabin space with good comfort.
When I drove the A4L, I found the tire pressure monitoring system quite handy. After starting the car, I'd first check the instrument cluster. By pressing the VIEW button on the left side of the steering wheel and scrolling to the 'Service' page, the small car icon would display the tire pressure values for all four wheels around it. If the tire warning light turns yellow, never ignore it and keep driving—there might really be a nail puncture or slow leak. Once when my tire pressure was unstable, the system directly alerted me about an abnormal left rear tire. At the repair shop, they found a screw lodged in it. Resetting the tire pressure data is also simple: when the tire pressure is normal, enter the MMI system, select 'Vehicle > Service > Tire Pressure Monitoring,' and click Store—that's it. Note that after resetting, you need to drive for about ten minutes for the system to relearn the data.
Last week, I just taught my wife how to check the tire pressure on her A4L: First, start the car, then press the menu button with a small house icon on the right side of the steering wheel a few times until you see the tire pressure monitoring page and stop there. The digital display is much more intuitive than the old car, with real-time updates for all four wheels. However, I must remind you that it's normal for the tire pressure warning to go off after a sudden temperature drop—don't panic, just drive to a tire shop to top up the air. After topping up, you must go into the central control screen to reset it. The path is 'Vehicle Settings - Maintenance & Checks - Tire Pressure Monitoring System,' then find the option to store the current tire pressure. Once during a snow day, my car kept giving errors because I forgot to reset after topping up the air, and the warning light flashed for a whole week.
Veteran Driver Tips: The A4L has two types of tire pressure monitoring. The high-end version displays numerical values directly on the dashboard, while the base model relies on wheel speed sensors to calculate pressure differences (the warning light indicates an issue). To view specific values, access the MMI: press the CAR button to enter the vehicle menu, turn the knob to 'Maintenance and Inspection,' where the tire pressure monitoring page shows a bar graph. Key reminder: Always check tire pressure when seasons change! Thermal expansion and contraction can reduce pressure by 0.3 bar. If the warning light comes on, avoid sharp steering, slow down, and pull over—especially on highways, as a blowout is no joke.
