Hey guys, I've got a 2013 golf 7 2.0L tdi.
I tried to reset the service warning multiple times but it comes back immediately .
This is what I'm doing:
1. I hold the 0.0 button
2. Turn the key without starting the engine
3. "Service interval reset?" Comes us on the dash
4. I press the 0.0 button
It then comes up with "service interval reset" then the following prompt says "service now"
Am i doing something wrong, can someone please help me lol very frustrating

Please don't PM to ask questions about coding, or vehicle repairs. The better place to deal with these matters is on-line, in the forum proper. That way you get the benefit of the expertise of the wider forum! Thank you.

Yeah i thought that was the case. The warning goes away but instantly pops up again. It's really annoying.
Anywhere I can get a cheap vcds cable from? Located in sydney.
And is it hard to reset the service interval through a vcds

Doesn't work
On the my13 models, there is no oil change light either lol just an inspection warning
Thanks anyway!

Golf7Tdi: If you want to make the short ride to Melbourne, I'm more than happy to reset the SRI for you - and the only cost will be the opportunity for a chat about any topic that you choose!
On a more serious note - although I thoroughly recommend buying a GENUINE VCDS cable, they aren't inexpensive. If you only have a limited application, or you just want to dabble - then I suggest that you buy an OBDeleven dongle.
OBD11 is cheap, but it needs an Android device and good internet connection speed at the point-of-use. But even if you don't have an Android device - the additional cost of buying a second Hand tablet/mobile phone from FleaBay is still way cheaper. However, when you become infected with the incurable disease that will manifest with an interest in OBD diagnostics, then anticipate the urge to buy a REAL toy like VCDS!!

PS: Have a read of the VWW thread on OBDeleven HERE
PPS: Please don't buy a fake/clone VCDS cable - you will just become another supporter of the despicable market in IP theft!!
PPPS: As a VWW forum member, you could also ask for help from a colleague that does own a diagnostic cable and that is local - see HERE
PPPPS: And lastly, no - it isn't difficult to reset the SRI - here's how it's done with OBD11

Thanks a lot for that, I live in sydney so I won't be able to come to melbourne. But I was having a quick look at obdeleven and thought it was a gimmick. But I will buy it and have a play.
Thanks for your help!
Sucks that I can't change it manually though!
