Turn volume button until menu comes up
Release info button
Using joystick select confirmation and press ENTER by pushing down joystick
Select Service and press enter
Select reset and press enter

Can you tell me how to remove the spanner on a 2004 mark V Golf 1.9 TDi. I've been told I need to got to a VW service dealer with diagnostic equipment and obviously a non service dealer charges much less but cannot get the information from VW.

For any body who's interested I discovered the solution from a Google search for removing the spanner icon from my VW Golf Mk V TDi:-

Press and hold Tripmeter button on the RHS of the panel
Switch ignition ON
When information panel lights up, including the service spanner, press minute button on the clock on the LHS of the panel
Switch ignition OFF

Spanner no longer lights up when ignition is turned on.
 
A stupid question, why would a 2007 Citroen C4 with 7950 k on it have the service sign come up on it at times, not always but usually if the car stalls due to someone unfamiliar with it driving it? I thought it was way too little mileage for a service to be due
 
Hi Mondeoman,

I have searched this thread but can't find any reference to this one! A friend of mine has a 2004 BMW 525 (I think!) and while travelling with him this weekend, he pointed out that the warning light on the dash referred to a flat tyre (which he didn't have) and that it had been on for months! He wasn't going to go to a main dealer to have it reset, so would have to wait until the next service was due, but can you advise how to switch that warning light off? Many thanks on his behalf.

Bit of a late reply but the tyre pressure warning is a little over sensitive,check thoroughly that there is no puncture etc.Adjust the tyre pressures to what they should be.
Does the car have idrive? if so you need to access the the pressure reset through the menu.

There is No info on Autodata about The 'ALTEA'?? ,but you can try the Ibiza if you want.

2- switch ignition 'ON'

3-the word 'service' will appear in the trip recorder display.

4- Release trip stalk

5- turn stalk to the 'Right' untill '....' appears in the display

6-release stalk.

7-Switch ignition 'OFF'


I hope this works for you.
