Just joined. And, I haven't found the string on the silly Service !! coming up on my dash, now that I've chosen to do my own oil changes. I have an OBD II reader, but it won't cancel the display. Please don't tell me I need a $300.00 tool to reset it. Any hints?? 2001 Audi A6 Avant 2.8 Denver, Colorado

 

Turn off the ignition.
Then turn on the ignition while holding down the right-hand button (near the speedo). "SERVICE!" will appear in the display.
Press the left-hand button until the SERVICE text is cleared. The display should show the next service interval.
Release both buttons.

 

Jestnomen, You are probably a genius!! Worked perfectly. Thx

 

Tried that on my car won't work (2.8 a6 98)

 

Thanks, this worked!

Jeff

 

It doesn't always work, some require you to use your scan tool. ( Or possibly a cluster fault )
