Service Due Indicator

[BowsG]

I have a 2012, MkII, Octava SE+, 2l TDI with Maxidot display.

 

On previous Octava II's that I've owned it's been possible to check the milage to the next service by turning on the igniton then pressing and holding down the trip reset button.

 

I tried this on my 2012 SE+ and no mileage is displayed. The trip mileage goes to 0.0 but returns to the original recorded mileage if the button remains pressed.

 

I had the sevice interval set to variable at the last service which was carried out on 7th February 2014. Since then it's done about 18,000 miles and I would have thought that the service due in x miles warning would have been coming on at start up - it hasn't. Previous Octavia II's that I've owned have been due variable service at intervals of just over 17,000 miles.

 

Does anyone know if it is possible to check the miles to next service on my SE+?

 

Thanks in anticipation.

Look In maxidot, menu - vehicle status. It will tell you miles/days to next service.

Mine is due in 100 miles so off to the dealers a week on Wednesday.

Thanks for that fairlight5 - I'll give it a try this evening.

No problem :-)

Thanks again Fairlight5 - the service is due in 1500 miles.

Can you reset the service indicator using the maxidot system or is it vcds only job?
