What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a Q8?

Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your Q8’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.

Can my Q8 malfunction warning light be reset at home?

Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended. The check engine light is commonly triggered by a misfire, fault or malfunction in one of the vehicle's systems. It is important to identify and fix the underlying problem to ensure the safety and reliability of the vehicle. Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.

A drivetrain malfunction in your Q8 should never be taken lightly. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can put you in danger and lead to further vehicle damage, so it's essential to have a qualified mechanic assess and repair the problem as soon as possible.

Is the transmission considered part of the drivetrain in my Q8?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Q8’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Q8 forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
