Resetting the “Inspection Due” light in your Audi depends on the specific model and year you have. There are two main methods:
1. Using the car’s built-in menu:
- This method is only available on newer Audi models (generally 2017 and later).
- Here’s a general guide, but the exact steps might differ slightly for your model:
- Turn on the engine and put the car in park.
- Press the “Menu” button on the MMI system.
- Go to “Car”, then “Service and Checks”.
- Scroll down to “Service Interval Reset”.
- Select “Inspection” and confirm the reset.
2. Using an OBD-II scanner:
- This method works on most Audi models, regardless of the year.
- You’ll need an OBD-II scanner tool (like Carly or OBDeleven) and the corresponding app on your phone.
- Connect the scanner to the OBD-II port (usually under the steering wheel).
- Launch the app and connect to the scanner.
- Navigate to the “Service Reset” or “Maintenance” section.
- Select “Inspection” and confirm the reset.
Important notes:
- Do not reset the inspection light if your car actually needs an inspection. This could lead to missed problems and potential damage.
- Always consult your Audi owner’s manual for the specific instructions on how to reset the inspection light for your model.
- If you’re not comfortable doing it yourself, it’s best to take your car to an authorized Audi service center.
