How to reset service reminder

[RickT]

Just serviced the Golf and need to reset the service reminder .. (not got a can bus VAG-COM or VCDS)

Can it be done using the below.. ?

Service due reminder

It's all about the trpi-reset, button, with the ignition on, let the seatbelt alarm go off (if you're not wearing it) preferably wear the seatbelt and within 2 seconds of turning the key to light up the ignition lights, (do not start engine) press and hold the trip-reset button. You will NOT lose the trip count - it'll go to zero initially, show you the mileage to the next service interval, and the trip counter will go back to what it was.

The display resets back to the normal computer after about 30 secs.

Cheers

Vehicles with Multifunction Display -
1.) With the key out of the ignition - Press and hold the “0.0”, located on the right side of the instrument cluster.
2.) While holding the reset button insert the key and turn to the “Accessory” position. Wait for “Service now!” message to appear on multi–functionscreen.
3.) Then release the “0.0” and press the “m” (minutes) button on the opposite side of the instrument cluster.
4.) To verify it’s been reset hold the ”0.0″ button again - the display should indicate the future service by the message: “Service in 5,000 mi / 8,000 KM or 180 days or 10,000 mi / 16,000 km or 365 days” depending on Service Interval adaptation.




Vehicles without Multifunction Display -
1.) With the key out of the ignition - Press and hold the “0.0”, located on the right side of the instrument cluster.
2.) While holding the ”0.0″ button insert the key and turn to the “Accessory” position. Wait for “wrench” symbol to appear in the odometer display.
3.) Then release the “0.0” and press the “MIN” button on the opposite side of the instrument cluster.
4.) To verify it’s been reset hold the ”0.0″ button again: The “wrench” symbol will appear together with the reset number of miles / kilometers you can drive until the service due date. The display changes after about 10 seconds. A “clock” symbol appears together with the reset number of days until the service due date.




VAG-COM method:
1.) Select 17-Instruments
2.) Select Adaptation (10) under advanced functions
3.) Enter Adaptation Channel Number: 02 and select “Read”, The window should read: “Service Reminder” and ServRemInd Closed Reset
4.) Enter “00″ as the new value
5.) Select “Save” and select “Yes” when VAG-COM asks “Are you SURE?”
6.) To verify it’s been reset, with the key in the accessory position, hold the ”0.0″ button - the display should indicate the future service by the message: “Service in 5,000 mi / 8,000 KM or 180 days or 10,000 mi / 16,000 km or 365 days” depending on Service Interval adaptation.

Thank you for this, it worked on my 2008 diesel golf.

This is brilliant thanks. There is a small tweak to make it work on our Mk V 1.9 TDi which is as follows:

Vehicles with Multifunction Display -
1.) With the key out of the ignition - Press and hold the “0.0”, located on the right side of the instrument cluster.
2.) While holding the reset button insert the key and turn to the “Accessory” position. Wait for “Service now!” message to appear on multi–functionscreen. ON OURS WE HAD TO TURN THE KEY TO THE "IGNITION" POSITION.
3.) Then release the “0.0” and press the “m” (minutes) button on the opposite side of the instrument cluster.
4.) To verify it’s been reset hold the ”0.0″ button again - the display should indicate the future service by the message: “Service in 5,000 mi / 8,000 KM or 180 days or 10,000 mi / 16,000 km or 365 days” depending on Service Interval adaptation.
