2 Answers
Volkswagen Touran maintenance light reset method is as follows: 1. Turn off the ignition. (Engine off) 2. Press and hold the "0.0" button on the instrument panel. 3. Turn on the ignition while keeping the "0.0" button pressed. 4. When the instrument panel displays information, release the "0.0" button. 5. Press the "0.0" button again to confirm. (Press once) 6. Check if the maintenance light has been reset to zero. If not, you must start over.
I previously encountered this issue and manually reset the maintenance light on my Volkswagen Touran. The specific steps were: First, turn off the engine and ensure the ignition switch is in the OFF position; then press and hold the "0.0" button on the instrument panel, which is the key to resetting; next, turn the key to the ON position to power the instrument cluster without starting the engine; continue holding the button, and after about 5 seconds, the instrument will display an English prompt saying "Reset maintenance data"; at this point, release the button and quickly press the "0.0" button once more to confirm; finally, turn off the power and restart the car, and the maintenance light will disappear. Note that the button location may vary depending on the model year—my older model used a single-button reset, while newer models might require combination with steering wheel buttons. Before resetting, it's best to note down the current mileage for easier reference at the next maintenance reminder.
