Whats occurring please,is this normal?

As usual answers on a postcard to................ :confused:

A touch early maybe, how old is the car (when was it PDI'd in your service book?)

TBH you normally get the light around 500-1,000 miles before the service.

Aren't there 2 settings in the ECU ?

1 for the number of days to service & 1 for the number of miles covered.

So could this be that the Number of days to service setting has reached zero.

( If you are on fixed servicing. )

Yes Steve thats why i asked how old it is.

It counts down days and monitors mileage. So it will come on a year after the service indicator was set or around 9000 miles.

Hi,

it is an 04 reg,PDi'd on 17 march 04.

Many thanks,Mac

Mine came on at 14000 miles...flashes at me everyday. on 17 now, now doubt they'll reset it at 20 when it goes in for its service. Will probably start flashing again at 23.

What is the point of it. Do Skoda and the rest of them think we are all too thick to read the mileometer?

I take it it had its 10k service?

You suggesting that I'm possibly a bit of a plonker Mr Ross? :confused:

As a footnote, it's having the weight bobbins fitted to the handbrake, new solenoids (I think) for the front window electric winders to stop them swapping over, and a new heater control fitted when it goes in, probably early April..apart from these little niggles, it's been a total success and pinnacle of reliability..well done Skoda!
