Volkswagen Transporter T6 Inspection Light Reset Procedure

Now we’re just left with the inspection and we’re going to do exactly the same procedure again but this time we’re going to turn the hazard lights on while we do it. So what you’re going to need to do is:

• Start with the ignition off and turn on the Hazzard warning light

• Then as you turn the ignition on you need the 0.0/SET button pressed
• Afterward, it will ask you about resetting the inspection and you’re going to press the OK button on the steering wheel or on the wiper lever
• Finally, turn the hazards off and all should be reset there

For your info, this operation work for the VW Volkswagen Transporter T6 (2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023 model years). For the older model, you can reach it here.

VW Transporter T6 Maintenance Service

Volkswagen Transporter T6 vehicles are relatively new. Therefore they can go long stretches between services. But they still need annual or biannual tune-ups to keep their performance at peak levels, extend the life of their engines, and preserve their value.

The service interval indicator found in VW Transporter dashboards is quite helpful. The panel lights up for around 20 seconds once the engine is turned on, displaying maintenance notifications.

When the official VW T6 service intervals are not in progress, there are a few inspections you should be performing at home. Inspect the AdBlue concentration, engine oil, coolant, screen wash, brake, clutch fluids, tire rotation, and tire pressures.

However, if you put the VW T6 Transporter through its paces, keeping up with its maintenance routine will prevent you from turning into a crazed mechanic on your next adventure. Nevertheless, preventative maintenance is the most important thing you can do to ensure safety and security.
