Over a year ago I cleared the service warning message using the Brazilian method (worked fine) and was expecting the service message to pop up a year later.

1. Turn on the ignition switch 2. Open the hood 3. Open the driver door 4. Note: Maintenance resetting information is not displayed on the instrument cluster. Fully depress the accelerator pedal, and brake pedal, and hold for 60s. 5. Turn off the ignition switch 6. Turn on the ignition switch and check whether maintenance information is cleared 7. If maintenance information is not cleared, repeat the procedure. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years FL2 MY13 TD4 GS Current |

How do you open the hood (I suppose in Britain it will be the bonnet) before you open the door. Do you have an assistant, or climb out the window? Everyone can spread it - Anyone can catch it. Stay home - the life you save can be your own! |
