Resetting the service interval on various BMW models

The service interval is the period of time between vehicle maintenance. That is, between changing oil, fluids (brake, coolant, power steering) and so on. At official service stations, after this work, specialists themselves reset the counter.

In principle, there is nothing wrong with the fact that the “service” light comes on. Essentially, this is a reminder to replace consumables . Often such maintenance is done independently, without involving the services of service centers. But after the maintenance procedure itself is completed, the question remains: how to reset the service interval?

The service interval is reset by manipulating the dashboard, battery terminals and ignition switch. Depending on the make and model of the car, these manipulations may vary. As a rule, the procedure comes down to the following sequence.

Technical data

Selection of oil and fluids

Repair and replacement

On vehicles with flexible service intervals, the display cannot be reset manually. Reset can only be carried out using a suitable diagnostic tool.

When manually reset, the maintenance interval is not set to flexible interval. The service interval can only be reset if the combined instrument panel has already shown a service request message.

Maintenance notification

On Volkswagen Passat cars, a special service key or a notification about the need for maintenance appears as the odometer approaches the desired indicator.

The service interval is standard in most cases, and it is 15 thousand kilometers.

Regardless of the generation of the Volkswagen Passat model, the only correct action when a service notification appears is to perform the procedure for resetting the service interval counter.

The procedure itself is somewhat different for Passat of different generations. Therefore, the instructions applicable to models B5, B6, B7 and B8 will be discussed separately. These are the most current and most widespread generations of Volkswagen Passat, actively used on Russian roads.

Reset on a regular on-board computer

First, let's talk about the nuances of resetting the service interval on a Skoda Rapid equipped with a conventional on-board computer. This is a fairly common configuration, since many Russians prefer the basic and mid-level equipment versions of the Skoda Rapid model.

And the multifunctional display of the on-board computer appears in more expensive trim levels.

To reset the counter informing about the required service and remove the annoying notification on the on-board computer screen, you need to follow this sequence:

  • On the dashboard, directly below the on-board computer display and between the speedometer and tachometer wells, there are two physical buttons. Left and right. The driver should be interested in the right one, where the image 0.0 is printed.
  • Turn off the ignition on the Skoda Rapid. After this, hold down the reset button.
  • Hold the 0.0 button pressed for several seconds.
  • After this, the mileage should reset to zero, and then the previous value will appear on the display again.
  • Hold down the reset button and turn on the ignition. You just don’t need to start the engine.
  • Now a message should appear on the on-board computer screen prompting you to reset the service interval.
  • There you are asked to click “Yes” or “Cancel”. To select the desired item, use the switch on the steering column lever, or use the switch buttons directly on the steering wheel. This already depends on the configuration of a particular model.
  • After confirming the reset, the counter is reset.

Now a few words about how to remove the inspection service. In fact, the procedure for resetting the inspection service is no different from resetting the service interval on Skoda Rapid cars.

The only difference is that the inspection service is reset with the emergency lights previously turned on. First turn on the hazard warning lights, and then repeat all the procedures described above.

Maintenance period adjustment

If the car is under warranty, the car owner tries not to skip scheduled maintenance procedures. With older vehicles, drivers often skip recommended maintenance intervals. This does not mean that they refuse to carry out maintenance, but such procedures tend to be carried out less frequently than necessary. In this case, the constantly lit wrench will, of course, be annoying.

But there is a way out: reset or reset the Peugeot 308 maintenance interval. Moreover, you can do this yourself, without contacting a service station or “experts” among your friends or acquaintances.

Resetting the service interval on the instrument panel

The procedure algorithm is extremely simple and does not require the use of any tools:

  • you must turn off the ignition, if it was on, and press the mileage reset button located at the bottom left of the speedometer scale;
  • while pressing the key, insert a contact;
  • since the service mode indication is programmed for a certain period of time, you must wait until the mileage value on the display is reset;
  • After zero appears on the display, turn off the ignition.

As you can see, the procedure is really simple and takes no more than a minute, and such manipulation will eliminate the annoying reminder of the need for maintenance.

It is important to understand that such a reset of the maintenance interval in Peugeot 308 vehicles must be perceived by the on-board computer. Usually this happens automatically if you have done everything according to the above algorithm. But there may be some nuances, for example, if you are used to disconnecting the battery when leaving the car for a long period of time. In this case, in order for the odometer readings to drop to 0 in order to record the BC in the memory, you must perform the following steps:

  • get out of the car, slamming the door loudly;
  • lock the car with central locking;
  • wait at least 5 minutes (preferably 10) necessary to save the changes made to the on-board computer;
  • and only then can you disconnect the battery terminal.

Resetting the service interval on a Skoda car produced 2010 and younger

The process differs depending on the configuration of the machine. Let's consider the options.

Multifunction steering wheel

Press the enter key on the right spoke of the steering wheel.

The “Main Menu” will appear in the MFI window. Scroll the wheel and select “Settings”. Fix it by pressing the wheel.

Select from the proposed list by rotating the “TO” wheel and pressing to confirm the selection.

Rotate the wheel and select “Reset”, press the wheel and confirm the choice.

In this section, select and confirm “YES”. After confirmation, go to the bottom of each list and select “Back”. We return to the usual route section of the display. Turn off the ignition. After a short pause, turn on the ignition and check whether the notification about the need to perform maintenance has disappeared. If there is any left, we will repeat the process more carefully and carefully.

A car with a regular steering wheel

  • There is a “trip” button on the instrument panel, it is indicated by a white arrow in the picture, press and hold it with the finger of your left hand and then turn on the ignition with your right hand.
  • After pausing for a few seconds, release the button.
  • Now carefully turn the button to the right, wait until the numbers 15000 appear on the display.
  • Release the button and turn off the ignition. The service interval has been reset.

After a few seconds, turn on the ignition and check whether the indication of the need for maintenance has disappeared. If the reminder does not disappear, try again.

Maintenance regulations or how is a car serviced?

The routine inspection procedure takes from 6 to 12 hours, depending on the workload of the official dealer’s booth in your region, and proceeds as follows:

  1. Body inspection: Visual inspection of the integrity of the paintwork and anti-corrosion coating of body elements, as well as the windshield and all glass. Then the hood lock is lubricated and replaced with a new cabin filter, after which the exhaust pipes and fuel system are checked. Finally, clean the drain holes and drain box;
  2. Diagnostics of the engine and transmission - replacing the oil and air filters and technical oil, then adding fuel additive G Next, replacing the spark plugs and refractor on the engine, after which the engine is checked for deformation and leaks. Also, on models with an automatic transmission, add new ATF fluid;
  3. Checking the carriage: This is where the ball joints and tie rod ends are checked for distortion, then the bearings are checked for play. Additional diagnostics of the brake system and brake pads for damage and corrosion, after filling the brake fluid to the mark and cleaning the brake drum linings from dirt. Upon completion of the truck diagnostics, the suspension system is checked for leaks and deformation;
  4. Gait analysis - measuring tire pressure and monitoring tread depth, after which the tire's expiration date is checked;
  5. Electrical equipment monitoring - monitoring the condition of external lighting devices, diagnostics of batteries and electrical equipment control levers. Subsequently, the light optics and sound signal are checked and calibrated. Finally, the interior lighting is checked and the check count sensor data is reset. The sensor of the Era-Glonass system is also monitored;
  6. Final work and control inspection: This stage includes a control train in the car, as well as filling out a service book and a technological inspection checklist.

How to reset the service interval

The appearance of a signal about the need for maintenance is a common problem that almost every motorist has encountered. In this case, the display may flash and the device may make annoying beeps. In service centers, when resetting, they make an entry in the service book and stick a sticker indicating the date of the next maintenance. Manufacturers do not recommend resetting the data yourself, as the indicator settings may be lost. But most often, no malfunctions in the operation of the vehicle systems are observed.

Typically, a service notification appears after approximately 15,000 kilometers or 372 days. But most drivers perform maintenance much more often, approximately every 5-7 thousand kilometers. After changing the oil and filters yourself, the message “Service” appears. After all, the system cannot recognize that the fluid has already been replaced. You can remove this inscription yourself without overpaying at a car service center. It is possible to reset the recorded information if the “Service” indicator lights up on the screen.

Automatic notification

The display of the controls shows the remaining cycle until the next scheduled maintenance. The readings are reset every time you visit the service center. Regular servicing is mandatory for Peugeot 308 vehicles with a valid warranty and a valid service contract.

Maintenance warning

The Peugeot 308 maintenance interval is 20,000 kilometers. It is this value that is fixed in the settings of the on-board computer. As for the warning about the approaching end of the maintenance interval, the corresponding indicator begins to work when there are 3000 kilometers left until the next maintenance.

This is done in the standard way: when you turn on the ignition, the wrench symbol lights up on the dashboard for 5 seconds, and the mileage indicator shows the remaining mileage until a visit to the service center. After this period, the key disappears and the mileage value becomes equal to the number of kilometers traveled since the previous service (that is, since the intercharacter interval was reset).

When less than 1,000 kilometers remain until service, the driver warning algorithm changes: the mileage reading still changes after 5 seconds, but the spanner light does not go off after that.

If you missed the next service of your Peugeot 308, when you turn it on, the wrench starts blinking, and the meter displays the mileage you have driven after the next 20 thousand kilometers (in order not to deceive the driver, this value is indicated with a minus sign). After 5 seconds, the meter reading will return to normal, but the key symbol will remain lit to remind you to perform maintenance.

How to reset the inspection service on a Skoda Rapid

The action algorithm is selected based on which on-board computer is installed. Difficulties may arise if the manufacturer supplied the Maxi Dot system with a built-in VAG scanner. You can quickly reset the readings by following the steps in this order:

  1. With the ignition off, press the daily mileage switch and do not release.
  2. Activate the ignition without pressing the button.
  3. When a message appears on the screen about resetting the maintenance indicator after changing the oil, press the left button located at the bottom of the wiper lever.
  4. The information should be deleted; you can remove the ignition key.

In Skoda vehicles with a standard on-board computer there are two separate reset buttons. The Rapid model uses a double button with the following symbols: Set – to switch display modes and reset data, 0.0 – reset the TO indicator.

  1. If the car was manufactured after 2013, you must turn on the
  2. You need to turn everything off, then hold down the “set” key, it’s on the right.
  3. After a few seconds, turn on the ignition
  4. Release the button.

The left side of the key labeled “0.0” does not need to be used. It is clicked when the oil interval is reset. For models equipped with a multifunction display, the procedure is different. You must turn on the ignition and follow the instructions:

  1. Click on the lower right button and do not release until the menu opens.
  2. Quickly press the lower left key.
  3. Press and hold the right button again until the “Setup” message appears.
  4. Then briefly press the second key.
  5. Repeat steps from step 3. “Service” should appear on the screen.
  6. Perform steps 4 and 5 again, wait until the “Reset” line is displayed
  7. Click on the lower left button.
  8. Turn off the ignition.

Step by step video:

Service interval

The service guys were right. You can change the maintenance interval for your Volkswagen Polo yourself.

To do this, you need to find two buttons on the panel: “0.0 / SET” and the left button of the distance counter in the form of “two squares”.

Reset algorithm

The sequence of actions is as follows:

  1. we get into the car, insert the key into the ignition, but do not turn it;

Insert the key into the ignition switch.

Press the right button with the ignition off.

Press the button and turn on the ignition.

Press and hold the left button.

The range will now be reset to 372 days or again 15,000 km. If the operation is requested again, it is performed in the same way.

Service interval reset, Skoda maintenance reminders

Resetting the service interval and maintenance reminders is necessary after changing the oil, filters and other measures provided by the manufacturer.

For different models of manufactured cars, different service intervals are set, a reminder of which the driver sees on the instrument panel.

Skoda has the ability to check how much time is left before service.

Naturally, every owner who cares about his car promptly carries out all the prescribed measures to replace oils, fluids, filters and other elements included in the list of works for a specific mileage or age of the car.

Even if all the required work has been completed, the warning on the dashboard will remain. It needs to be removed. Often, maintenance is performed earlier than the due date and the reminder will not be activated, but after the time or mileage remaining before the due date, it will be displayed and will annoy you, so the interval after maintenance must be reset even if there is no reminder about it. The service interval is set at the manufacturer's factory. Mileage 15,000 km, time 367 days.

Passing Standards


It’s worth saying right away that the more often this procedure is performed, the better.
It definitely won’t get any worse after such a decision. Photo: drive2.ru There are generally accepted standards for completing the service.

  1. The standard recommendation from European manufacturers is to adhere to the 15 thousandth interval. Or replace it at least once a year. The second option is for the case when the mileage does not reach the specified threshold. This figure cannot be increased, only decreased.
  2. The interval decreases in the same way, taking into account the climate and conditions prevailing in Russia. Here you enter numbers up to 7-10 thousand kilometers. The main thing is not to try to save money by resolving this issue.

It is recommended to give preference to oils that have been on the market for a long time. Then the quality of the product will raise a minimum of questions.

It is better not to purchase compounds in the markets, otherwise there is a high probability of stumbling upon fakes.

A little about the service interval

The name of the service interval was given to the time between vehicle maintenance procedures. That is, between carrying out work to replace fluids, units, and so on. Resetting counters is the responsibility of specialists when carrying out work at specialized service stations.

Do not worry if the “service” sensor lights up. This is just a reminder that it's time to replace consumables. Maintenance is often carried out by drivers themselves, without the involvement of specialists. But after completing the procedure, the question often remains about resetting the interval.

What is a phase sensor and how does it work - see here.

Reviews from KIA Sportage owners will help you understand whether this car is worth buying or not.

Resetting the service interval

At 44,500 km, a reminder about the next maintenance began to pop up. Since I decided to carry out all subsequent maintenance myself, it became necessary to reset this reminder. The configuration of my machine is without maxidot. After searching the internet, I found this simple instruction:

1. Turn off the ignition. 2. Press reset button 2. 3. While holding down reset button 2, turn on the ignition. 4. Within 20 sec. press button 1. 5. Turn off the ignition.

About the InSP indication

InSP on the Volkswagen Polo display means the following:

  • InSP3 - check the voltage in the power supply to the central locking control unit.
  • InSP2: all external lamps need to be checked, a fault has been detected.
  • If only a combination of letters flashes, without numbers, this is a reminder of a scheduled technical check based on mileage or age.
  • InSP4 - presence of water in the diesel filter.

InSP in the dashboard until 2016

It is impossible to ignore this indicator (and indeed not at all). Not a single system is designed specifically to spoil the car owner’s nerves; if he warns about something, it means there’s a problem. Therefore, you need to make sure that the service period has not yet expired, or make an appointment at a service station.

To find out the remaining mileage, you need to:

  1. turn off the ignition;
  2. press odometer.
  3. After the daily mileage is displayed, the button is pressed again and held for a few seconds.

The letter combination InSP and the number of kilometers until the scheduled check will flash. For the Russian Federation, the range is 15 thousand kilometers.

Reset on the multifunction display

On many cars of the Skoda Rapid line of the 2018-2019 model year, as well as on earlier versions, the configuration included a multifunction display instead of the usual on-board computer screen. Here, resetting the service interval has its own characteristics.

In the case of a multifunction display, there may be 2 types of buttons underneath it. The first option is soldered, that is, it is a double button with images 0.0 and Set. There is another option where there are 2 separate buttons. On the left it looks like several rectangles following each other, on the right 0.0.

  • if you have soldered buttons, then turn on the emergency lights before performing operations;
  • turn off the ignition;
  • hold down the right side of the button labeled Set;
  • hold for a few seconds;
  • Without releasing the key, start the ignition;
  • do not start the engine, but only activate all systems;
  • release the button now.

That's it, we managed to reset the service interval to zero.

The left side of the key, where 0.0 is shown, is not used during the service interval reset process. But it is necessary to reduce the oil interval.

When using two separate buttons on a Skoda Rapid with a multifunction display, in order to reset the service counter, you must follow the following sequence of operations:

  • click on the right button under the on-board computer screen;
  • hold down this key and hold until a special menu opens;
  • quickly press the left button under the display once;
  • press the 0.0 button again;
  • hold it until the Setup message appears on the computer screen;
  • after releasing, press the same 0.0 key again;
  • now wait for the Service notification to appear;
  • make one short press on the left button;
  • hold down the right key again;
  • after this the message Reset should appear;
  • confirm the reset action by pressing the left button once;
  • turn off the ignition.

After this, start the ignition again and check whether the notification has gone away and whether the service message about the need to undergo a technical inspection has been reset.

Please note that full routine maintenance is carried out first, and only then the counter is reset.

Many Skoda Rapid owners, believing that the car can last longer and there is no need for maintenance yet, deceive the on-board computer, reset the service interval and continue operation. But at the same time, consumables and many components are seriously worn out. They need replacement and diagnostics.

In practice, resetting the service interval counter on Skoda Rapid cars yourself is quite simple. But the main difficulties arise from differences in the configuration and type of on-board computer screen. If you choose the right instructions, you will be able to reset the service without outside help, spending literally a few minutes of your time on this.

How to reset with your own hands

If all the instructions for any car brand could be collected into one, then the necessary actions would have the following description:

  1. Turn off the ignition.
  2. Pressing the corresponding button.
  3. Turn on the ignition.
  4. Clamping the button, or its normal use.
  5. All that remains is to wait for the interval to reset.


This is an approximate order. Different machines have their own process characteristics, but there are not that many differences. Photo: best-jogurtnica.ru

Skoda Rapid Severyanochka › Logbook › Resetting the oil change reminder / then UPDATED

Good afternoon. Last night the car gave a warning and 30 days later I changed the oil. I immediately went online to find a way to reset this reminder. But of all the options, not one helped. It was possible to reset the inspection service, for example it will arrive in 365 days or 15,000 km. But I still haven’t figured out how to get rid of the oil change notification. I spent the entire evening, but the proposed options (with and without an emergency lane) did not work out.

UPDATED Thanks to the post by oleg32-71, I was able to reset the oil change reminder.

INSTRUCTIONS Six months ago I did this on my car, I found a recording on the disk. Procedure: - insert the ignition key, - press the button on the dashboard - without releasing the button, turn the ignition key and release the button - the message “Reset service data” will appear - press the button on the dashboard - the data will be restored. Oil service is restored in the same way. A second after releasing the button with the panel already inserted, the message “Reset oil change” appears, and after another second, “Reset inspection service”. Pressing again resets the selection. The changes will take effect the next time you turn on. It turns out that the messages come one after another, and in a second you need to have time to click the desired message.

Methods for resetting the service interval

Skoda Yeti cars can be equipped with a standard on-board computer or a computer with a multifunction display. In the second case, to reset you will need to use the multifunction steering wheel buttons or the keys on the windshield wiper control lever.

With a standard on-board computer, you can use the Set and 0.0 buttons.

On Skoda Yeti cars that were produced after 2013, there is a clock button on the right side of the dashboard. And on the left there is a reset button.

Service Warning

This is not to say that resetting the service interval is a mandatory procedure for any car, including the Skoda Yeti crossover. But it is recommended to do this.

By resetting, it is possible to remove the annoying message from the on-board computer screen. Yeti electronics will think that the machine has not passed the scheduled service inspection and is being operated with old consumables and worn-out spare parts.

According to the maintenance rules, the dealer is obliged to reset the service interval upon completion of all procedures as part of scheduled maintenance. It is presented in the form of a Service Oil service message.

In addition to the service interval, there is also an inspection interval. It resets according to a similar scheme, but has one difference. You will learn about it further.

The maintenance interval for Skoda Yeti cars of the 2012 model, as well as older and younger versions, is identical. It is 15 thousand km. The on-board computer, using a special sensor, counts this interval. And as we approach the 15,000 km mark. displays a service message on the on-board computer screen. To remove it, the counter must be reset.

Difficulties with resetting the service interval on Skoda Yeti cars are due to the fact that this crossover was produced in several modifications. And each of them used its own reset scheme.

Is it worth doing it yourself?

Let's consider the question: is it worth resetting the service interval of the Skoda Octavia A7 yourself?

  • On the one hand, nothing should irritate the driver while driving. Therefore, these actions are justified, especially since this operation of resetting the oil change on the Skoda Octavia A7 is not particularly difficult. This work will also allow you to save money prepared for visiting a car service center.
  • On the other hand, if the car is under warranty, a maintenance reset for the Skoda Octavia A7, carried out not by employees of the official Skoda dealership, may become a reason for refusal of warranty repairs and maintenance. Czech manufacturers also warn motorists that when resetting the service interval of the Skoda Octavia A7, the display settings may be lost.

Therefore, the car enthusiast himself must decide whether to perform a maintenance reset on the Octavia A7 or to do a similar procedure officially, at the dealer. To make a decision, you need to weigh all the pros and cons and take into account the consequences of such a decision.

Manufacturers do not recommend resetting the data yourself, as the indicator settings may be lost. But most often, no malfunctions in the operation of the vehicle systems are observed.

Typically, a service notification appears after approximately 15,000 kilometers or 372 days. But most drivers perform maintenance much more often, approximately every 5-7 thousand kilometers. After changing the oil and filters yourself, the message “Service” appears. After all, the system cannot recognize that the fluid has already been replaced. You can remove this inscription yourself without overpaying at a car service center. It is possible to reset the recorded information if the “Service” indicator lights up on the screen.

What else needs to be considered

The on-board computer issues messages as soon as something goes wrong in your car. Here are some basic examples of Renault Fluence error messages.

Error messages during operation - they appear immediately when problems occur. If you do not follow this recommendation, you risk damaging your vehicle. They disappear when you press the display select key or after a few seconds, and are saved in the computer's log. The warning icon remains on.

  • CHECK ESP - indicates a malfunction in the traction control system.
  • CHECK FUEL FILTER - Indicates that there is water in the diesel fuel, contact your mechanic as soon as possible.
  • CHECK GEARBOX - indicates that there is a malfunction in the gearbox; Contact your mechanic as soon as possible.
  • CHECK AUTO LIGHTS – indicates a malfunction of the automatic lighting; contact the service station.
  • INJECTION FAULT - indicates a serious engine malfunction.
  • ENGINE OVERHEATING – indicates engine overheating.
  • GEARBOX OVERHEATING - indicates gearbox overheating.

When determining when your car needs servicing, driving style and traffic conditions are much more important factors than simply completing a predetermined mileage. For example, a car that is constantly used for short trips on congested roads will require more frequent maintenance than a car that is primarily used for highway travel.

The service interval indicator monitors fuel consumption and tells you when an oil change or inspection is required based on the amount of fuel consumed. Thus, fuel consumption gives a very accurate idea of ​​the stress and strain that the engine experiences. By recording fuel consumption and making service recommendations for a given amount of fuel consumed, the Service Interval Indicator uses a highly accurate assessment of the driving conditions your vehicle has been subjected to and makes service recommendations that are both informed and effective for your vehicle and your wallet. If you have already reset the service indicator yourself, tell us about it in the comments below the article.
