| Re: How much should it cost... You can do it yourself with VAG-COM. Edit - Just thinking I'm sure if you are on variable and you reset the service indicator via the dash button it puts you on Fixed anyway.

| Briskodian | Re: How much should it cost... It will only work if the display is telling you it needs a service. Once it is, follow the manual for resetting and it will then be on fixed 10000 mile intervals. |

| Re: How much should it cost... Good point, I assumed that it was at a service interval.
