Following these brief instructions, we will see how to reset the service light for the regular maintenance of the engine oil change on the Volkswagen Tiguan. First of all, we get into the car and start the instrument panel; we go to the settings of the onboard computer until we reach the service menu, which we find at the bottom, as shown in the video.

At this point, we press the "ok" button at the bottom of the right steering wheel lever to confirm and perform the maintenance key reset, thus definitively resetting the service light!
