Can you reset your Q7’s malfunction warning light at home?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2009 Audi Q7

Your Q7 drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Audi, from the axles to the transmission. It's one of the most complex systems in your Q7 and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. Care for your 2009 Audi Q7 to maintain its performance power. Follow Audi's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

What Are Audi Q7 Drivetrain Repairs
