I have used vcds successfully for resetting the service reminder in my octavia vrs (2006) before, but now, trying to do it with my golf (2005), it doesn't appear to be working. It says "service reset complete" or something similar on vcds, but the "service now" reminder remains and boings up everytime I start the car
Do I have to do a few miles in it first (I've already done about 10), before it resets? In the octavia, the mileage until service due takes a few hundred miles to reset, when using the variable servcing function, but the actual service reminder disappears immediately iirc.
Or, has the fact that I've changed the can gateway (when upgrading my head unit), got something to do with it?
Any help appreciated!
