As someone who often tinkers with cars, I've researched the method to reset the Audi Q7 maintenance light. Simply put: First, press the start button twice without stepping on the brake to power on the car without starting the engine. Then locate the 0.0 button on the dashboard and hold it until the maintenance menu pops up on the screen. Select the reset option and confirm using the steering wheel's right-side scroll wheel and OK button. Note that the process varies by model year—for my 2017 model, the procedure was: Hold the button at the lower right corner of the dashboard until the menu appears, then navigate to the maintenance item and reset. Avoid stepping on the brake during the entire process, as doing so will start the engine and prevent resetting. Recently, when helping a friend with a 2020 model, I noticed changes—you now need to access the vehicle settings through the central control screen to find the maintenance cycle reset. After resetting, it's advisable to check the menu again; last time, I encountered a situation where only the alert was cleared but the data wasn't reset.
