Thank you so much. I took my car in today to get service and the guys cannot figure out how to turn off the service light. And less than two minutes you were able to solve my problem you’re the best thank you.
Where I'm pressing the button to turn the ignition on, you will want to just turn the key to the "on" position without starting the car. It should reset the same way from there.
Thanks for the reset info. It would be great if somebody did a video for an oil change for a 2018 Tiguan. It was a learning experience for me. The first drain plug I found uses a 5mm hex key, but I quickly realized that it was the transmission fluid because the fluid was red tinted instead of black ( I only let a little drip out since I wasn't certain about whether it was the oil or transmission plug). The oil pan is actually made of plastic, and the oil drain plug is also plastic. The oil drain plug uses a common flat blade screwdriver and only turns about 90 or maybe 180 degrees to unscrew. There's a tab on the edge of the plug that clicks into an indention on the edge of the drain hole. I'd never seen a plastic oil pan or plastic plug like this before. I wasn't very impressed, but I assume VW did their research before using it. I guess "time will tell". Also, the owners manual says to use 0W30 weight oil but the label under the hood says to use 0W20.
If you know a shop or someone with a proper scan tool you can change the mileage and amount of days through a scanner. 5000 or 182 days is what I do for synthetic.
@@justinschubbe5707 you just need the proper scan tool. I just did a reset for this same exact vehicle. Changed inspection mileage and time as well for transmission and brake service. This lady bought this from the Volkswagen dealer and they put the wrong oil inside it
If you're only changing your oil 1 time a year and/or every 10 thousand you're destroying your engine. It should be every 5000 miles or 6 months. Cant believe the idiocracy of dealers and people. Then wonder why they blow their motors.
