2 Answers
Audi A4 oil check due can be reset directly to zero, which is the maintenance reminder function of the Audi A4. This is a system-set vehicle maintenance reminder function that prompts when the car is due for maintenance. After maintenance is completed, it can be reset. Below are some relevant details: 1. After maintenance is completed, the maintenance reminder system needs to be reset to zero; otherwise, the system will continue to remind you. 2. Regular maintenance and care are crucial for the vehicle. Routine vehicle maintenance includes replacing fluids and wear-and-tear parts. The fluids in a vehicle include engine oil, transmission fluid, coolant, power steering fluid, and brake fluid. 3. Wear-and-tear parts on a vehicle include spark plugs, belts, batteries, tires, brake pads, brake discs, etc. During maintenance, the above-mentioned fluids and parts are replaced. It is essential to use genuine fluids and parts during maintenance to avoid damage to the vehicle.
I've been driving an Audi A4 for several years and have encountered the issue of the oil reminder not clearing quite often. Most of the time, it's due to not following the correct reset procedure. Audi models have specific steps, such as turning on the ignition without starting the engine before starting the car, then pressing the buttons on the steering wheel to enter the instrument menu and finding the maintenance item to reset. I follow this method every time, and it works well. But if it still doesn’t work, it might be because the oil wasn’t actually changed properly or the sensor is faulty. It’s best to first check the oil dipstick yourself to ensure the oil level is normal; otherwise, pressing buttons randomly won’t help. If all else fails, take it to the dealership and have them diagnose it with their computer—don’t delay too long to avoid engine wear. During routine maintenance, keep an eye on the technician’s work and remind them to reset the system, which can save a lot of trouble. Handling these small matters properly ensures a worry-free driving experience.
