Title: Service now!
Post by: gtineal on October 02, 2011, 08:11:41 pm
So I serviced the ed30 today and reset the service indicator so it doesn't bing and flash up service now when started, that all ok but when I hold in the 0.0 reset trip button and start the car I thought it was meant to now say 365 days or something like that ? It's still saying service now!  I've tried doing it with the vag-com and manually holding in the 0.0 reset button the the m button for the minutes but it's not reseting it, any ideas ??

cheers for the link, tried all that but it doesnt seem to get rid of the service now! indicator when the car is started with the 0.0 button is pushed in?? the service now! indicator still doesnt come on when the car is started without pushing in the 0.0 button so it not urgent, just annoying little thing that niggle me and i would like to try and find a solution to it if you know what i mean  :signLOL:    :party:

Tbh I'm not 100% sure, but it does flash up when the service is approaching like 14 days then down to 1 day then service now, like I said it has reset it so it not flashing up when the car is started so its not important but just a little niggle in the back of my head  :stupid:
