The method to reset the tire pressure monitoring system on an Audi Q5 is: 1. Turn on the ignition and press the multifunction button on the left side of the steering wheel to bring up the menu interface on the instrument panel; 2. Select the maintenance option, find the tire inflation pressure, and press the car button; 3. Choose the tire pressure monitoring system and continue to click 'store tire pressure' to complete the process. Taking the 2018 Audi Q5 as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4629mm, width 1898mm, height 1655mm, wheelbase 2807mm, and fuel tank capacity 75l. The 2018 Audi Q5 is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 169kW and a maximum torque of 350Nm, paired with an 8-speed automatic manual transmission.
I drive my Audi Q5 a lot, and whenever the tire pressure monitoring system alarm goes off, I have to deal with it immediately, otherwise I feel uneasy. First, check if the air pressure in all tires is normal, referring to the recommended values on the label by the door, and make sure each tire is adjusted correctly. Then, start the car but don’t turn on the engine, look for the MMI system in the car, press the buttons on the steering wheel or select 'Settings' on the screen, then choose 'Tires,' and click the 'Reset' option. Wait a few minutes until the warning light on the dashboard goes off. It’s best to do this operation in a safe place—never do it while driving. If the tire pressure isn’t properly maintained, driving can be dangerous, tires wear out faster, and fuel consumption increases. I also recommend checking the tire pressure yourself with a gauge once a month to prevent alarms. If the alarm goes off frequently, the sensor might be faulty or there could be a leak in the tire, so it’s best to visit a repair shop—safety comes first.
