Flexible Servicing--Oh God !

HopeImRight · 13-01-2007, 20:30

It's like this. Bought Octavia in Jan 05.

In Jan 06 had full service inc. oil of course. Service book has space for "Next service due on" and all it has is " Long Life" written in.

On the door frame is a sticker that says "Next service due Jan 2008"

Now when I switch on I get a flashing spanner and nothing else.

Playing with button B I can get between Memory 1 and memory 2 and I am told my next service is due in -1 (minus1) and 0.00.

Talk about confused !! What should I do next apart from tearing my hair out.

Thanks.

Drop by the dealer and ask them to sort it out. Sounds like the service interval may not be setup properly. I think it is also possible "by playing around with the button" to switch to fixed intervals.
