service indicator reset

Service now warning indicator came on the other day and I can't reset it using the instructions in handbook, tried loads of times, it is on QG1 servicing although dealer stamps in book say variable, the only other thing is the check brake pads warning comes on before the service indicator. I had it serviced 2 weeks ago at local independent and it is going back in for front discs and pads next month. Any ideas on how to get rid of service warning.

Re: service indicator reset

Variable service reset is Vag-Com or dealer only I'm afraid.

Re: service indicator reset

Kari, that is great, but it will only reset it back to fixed service interval and not variable.

Is it possible to change back to variable service intervall if I have done the procedure Kari wrote?

I'm afraid I have changed my car to fixed, but this was not mine intention...

Re: service indicator reset
