Today we will explain how to reset the 2016 Audi A3 on your own. To reset the warning light, we turn on the instrument panel and the onboard computer of our Audi. We select the "vehicle" option and immediately after, the "service" option. From the service menu, we select the "service intervals" option and then the "reset" option.

After completing the reset of the warning light, we restart the instrument panel. If the reset fails, it will be necessary to go to a workshop for a computerized diagnosis to identify any issues related to the control unit or the oil tank sensors.
