Golf V R32 :: Service Indicator Indicating To Do Service
May 10, 2009
My service indicator is yelling Service Now
Car is at 18K miles and change, I had it serviced at all the factory intervals sticker on my windshield (from VW dealer) says next service at 20,345 so it looks like VW is on a 5K interval and my computer is looking for something else. Should I ignore the nagging until the proper service interval or take it to the dealer, then I can bug them about the laggy gearbox and other niggles ...

So the service reminder came on this past Saturday, went to the dealer and had them check it out. No issues and they said they reset it. I was driving home last night and it came back on. Should I be concerned the reminder came back on? The car ahs 18K miles and the 20K service was done prior to me purchasing the car. Vehicle is a 2012 Passat SE.

Every few weeks or so my "service advance track" indicator will come on then after a few cranks of the engine, go off again. 2 Different dealers have serviced this issue over the last 4 months, sometimes replacing modules, sometimes not. After at least 6 trips to the dealer and multiple "repairs" I am now being told that the differential in the tread depth between my front and rear tires is the cause of the problem. Ford is recommending that I replace the rear tires (which have only about 20K on them. Seriously?

The "Service 4 WD" indicator light came on and stayed on for about 5 miles this morning. I rarely use the 4WD function usually just using it on a dirt road to make sure it gets used. Would this indicate the need for a fluid change or is something more sinister afoot?

Can the service reminders, such as oil change due now, be reset by us owners? I do most of my own maintenance and am hoping to be able to reset when needed.

The MFD did the 500 mile service countdown and now just says service now, to get this cleared do I need someone with a Vag-Com to clear it? is there some trick or will it go away automatically.

I am a relatively new owner of a 03 R32 with 34,000 miles on the clock. I did a major service barely 600 miles ago. Yesterday the " Service Now" light came on as soon as i started the car. Stayed on for like 3 sec & went off. Didn't come back on again. Is the reminder set on a time interval clock? (My Ford Explorer is set that way) How can i reset it?

I've had my Golf Wagon for over 2 years. A week ago it started giving me the service warning every time I start. service in 4000 miles or 350 days. I had a dealer done oil change, took a 5000 mi road trip, came home, and now this happens every time I start my car.
I feel I could turn it off via vag com, but I also feel like I've crossed in a parallel universe. as every post just tells people how to "reset"... can't find anything about on/off or its sudden appearance out of nowhere! and I can't for mysterious reasons, post on other forums.
did the dealer do something via vag com? did my co-driver hit some weird combo of buttons?

The service light for the oil change came on this weekend. The car only has 2996 miles on it. The manual calls for the oil change at 5000 miles. My Touareg doesn't do this. Is this tied in to how you drive or is something wrong?

So I did my own oil change for the first time instead of taking it to a shop. Now I have the service warning indicator that comes on in the MFD every time I start the car. Is there any way to reset the interval warning indicator without a vag com or taking it to a dealer/ind. shop?

Whats going on in VW land. I have a little problem. Last week I got gas and as soon as I left the gas station the engine light came on. I ran diagnostics, which show cylinder 3 misfire. Looking for the easy way out I replaced the spark plugs (cylinder 3 plug was trashed), this did not fix the problem and my baby is still running like crap. What it may be or the next step I have to take?
I am approaching the 100,000 mile mark and in the service portion of our manual it doesn't say anything about changing belts. It only says they run diagnostic and check the car out.

For the last 3 months I've been bringing in my vehicle in and out of the VW dealership trying to find out why once in a while when I turn off my my vehicle the accessory part turns back on by its self and error message displaying "Error: Brakes service now!" In the middle of the cluster & then the car turns off completely. The first time I brought it to the VW dealership they called corporate and they said to change the cluster so they did. Two days after I pick up my car the error message came back on. Took it for the 2nd time and they said that it was the gateway .
And one day later after picking up my car the error message came back on again. I'm getting tired bringing in my Golf R and not fixing this issue. What it could be? Just an FYI, It is a push start. Here's a quick video link so you can see what I'm talking about [URL] ....

Yesterday, the dealer performed the 20K service on my '11 GTI. A bit later in the day, I noticed that every time I turned left or right I could hear something rolling/rattling back and forth in the dashboard/cowl area. It's audibly going quite far, almost from one side of the car clear to the other. At first I thought it was on top of the dash, but there was nothing there. It's clearly coming from inside someplace, and I never heard it before the service. My guess is that something came loose when they changed the cabin air filter.
I called the dealership, and after blowing some smoke about my possibly having parked under an oak tree, they said to bring it back in, which I can't do until tomorrow.

So I just brought my 2015 golf TDI in for its 20,000 standard service and then starting about 2 days later, every time I start the engine there is this rapid (and loud) ticking sound which goes on for 20 seconds or so before stopping. It almost sounds like it is coming from the passenger side speaker or under the passenger side dash. It sounds electronic in nature rather than mechanical but I'm not really sure.
