In this video, you will see how to reset the service light on an Audi A1 8X version, even though it is generally expected that diagnostic equipment is required for this operation. However, there is always a DIY enthusiast who finds a way to do it themselves: press the "car" button on the radio panel, and a menu will appear on the screen.

Use the scroll wheel to navigate down to "service & check", which will take you to "service intervals" and show the next maintenance intervals. Then move to "reset oil change interval" and confirm.

If you cannot turn off the light using this method, you will need to resort to diagnostics; if you have an OBD11, you can try to do it yourself, otherwise, you will need to go to a garage.
