I usually drive an Audi A4, and the oil service reminder can be reset by myself. The method is quite simple: First, turn off the engine, press and hold the "0.0" button on the instrument panel without releasing it, then press the start button once to power up the instrument panel. At this point, the service reset menu will pop up on the screen. After releasing the button, quickly press the "0.0" button once more to confirm, and the reminder will be cleared. Do not press the brake during the entire process, otherwise the engine will start and cause the reset to fail. After resetting, the system recalculates the service interval, so make sure to perform this only after changing the oil to avoid misleading service timing. It takes just three minutes to do it yourself, saving a trip to the dealership. If it doesn’t work after two attempts, the timing of button presses might be off—check the owner’s manual to confirm the steps for safety.

What to Do If You Lose Your Car Remote Key?

Ask your family to bring the spare key, then use the spare key to drive the car to a repair shop for assistance. If cost is not a concern, it is recommended to choose a 4S dealership for repairs; otherwise, seek out a professional automotive company. The best solution is to replace all the locks in the car. Alternatively, you can replace the door locks to render the mechanical key ineffective, preventing entry through the doors.

What to Do Without Auto Hold at Red Lights?

Without auto hold at red lights, simply shift to D gear and apply the brakes. Below is a detailed introduction to auto hold: 1. Definition: It refers to an automatic braking function. Once activated, it eliminates the need to pull the handbrake, making it a great option for many drivers who are not skilled in manual operations. 2. Principle: When the vehicle is temporarily stopped and needs to restart after a short period, the parking function is handled by the ESP-controlled braking system. The computer uses a series of sensors to measure the vehicle's levelness and wheel torque, determines any tendency for the vehicle to roll, and applies an appropriate braking force to the wheels to keep the vehicle stationary.
