How to Clear the Vehicle Condition Check Code on Golf 7?

Use a computer to access the dashboard system, select the matching function, and set all the maintenance cycle data in the matching to zero. Below is some relevant information about the Golf 7: 1. The Golf 7 refers to the seventh-generation product of the Golf. On December 10, 2013, FAW-Volkswagen officially launched the new Golf 7 in Guangzhou. Volkswagen Germany introduced the first-generation Golf in 1974, and it has undergone seven generations of updates since then. 2. The Golf 7 is equipped with the EA211 series 1.6L and 1.4T engines, maintaining the same displacement as the Golf 6, but with changes in the power parameters of both engines. The 1.6L engine has a maximum power of 81 kW and a maximum torque of 155 Nm, paired with a 5-speed manual and 6-speed automatic transmission. The 1.4TSI engine comes in two different tuning versions: the low-power version has a maximum power of 96 kW and a peak torque of 225 Nm, while the top-end 1.4TSI flagship model is equipped with the high-power version, delivering a maximum power of 110 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm, approaching the power level of the EA888 series 1.8TSI engine. 3. The transmission system is paired with a 5-speed manual and 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I remember that on the Golf VII, the most straightforward way to clear the vehicle condition inspection code is to manually reset the service reminder light, which requires operating the dashboard buttons. The steps are simple: first, turn off the engine, then hold down the 0.0 button (or a similar reset button) near the steering wheel while turning the ignition to the second position (do not start the engine). Wait until the screen displays 'Reset service information' or a similar prompt, then release the button. It usually takes about ten seconds to complete. This code typically indicates that maintenance is due, so I recommend regular oil and filter changes to prevent carbon buildup in the engine. If the light stays on, it means the system has detected an abnormality. It's best to check the vehicle's actual condition first to ensure there are no hidden issues before proceeding. Doing it yourself is convenient and cost-effective, but if you're unsure, you can always refer to the owner's manual as a backup.
