Today we will explain how to reset the automatic transmission of the Audi Q3. Performing this operation on your own is very simple and quick. Get into the car and turn on the dashboard immediately after removing the gear shift knob.

To remove the gear shift knob, we need to use a flat-tipped screwdriver to lift the plastic part of the knob. On the right side of the gear shift, there is a yellow button that, when pressed for 15-20 seconds, will reset the automatic transmission.

Otherwise, it will be necessary to go to the workshop to have a computerized diagnosis performed.
