We will briefly see the instructions that will allow us to open the hood of the Audi Q5. First, let's open the driver's side front door and start pulling the hood release lever located at the bottom, to the left of the pedals; then, let's move to the front of the vehicle and slide the hood lock release lever located in the center, between the grille of the bumper and the hood, as shown in the video.

At this point, we lift the hood, securing the rod to hold it up (or held by the hydraulic pistons); gently lower the hood to close it.

This value is indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tyres are inflated, turn on the instrument cluster to check that the warning light has completely disappeared from the display. If it is still present, you may need to drive for a few miles to ensure it disappears completely from the screen.
