[petrolhead]

One question.......how do i do it with a MKII dash?

[Bump]

Err......

[Den]

thats prob a question for dan lol

exactly the same as the mk1 Dash

[vtsc2]

ok ive done that as it says but it still comes up with 1500 miles to next service

it should count down first? does it? u have to keep holding it down 4 a few seconds after mind, before u turn car off and on again.

[vtsc2]

tryed that done it all ways every time it comes back with 1500 on the service counter yes it does count down to zero

Mmmmmm it always works for me. keep trying it matie im sure it will work.

[vtsc2]

ok just done it 4 times still comes up with 1500 wonder if there is an interim service i don't no about

Void's your warranty if you do that ;)

why?

[bubijay]

because citroens system records wen you have a service done and if it shows that u havent, the car wont be maintained to their standards so wont pay for anything that goes wronge, easy solution is to just get some1 that works in a garage to stamp you book with a date and milage, as main dealers only look at your service book hehehehe
btw i charge £5 a stamp lol

it's not the cost, just the fact the fact of the dodgy/unofficial service stamp :lol:

[bubijay]

lol it aint that dodgy i do it for mates who i wont let them spend a criminal cost of servicing, so i do it for them like id do at work even at lunch times at work and stamp the book

[Danny]

Ahh, thats fair play but i wouldnt tell everyone about it on a public forum, just incase any 'unwanted' attention is lurking ;)

[bubijay]

lol na im setting up busness lol "knock knock" oh its the tax man :( lol

[elniniol999]

im not understanding which button im to hold here.. anyone got a pic? (bump!!)

[Markleshark]

The right hand side of the 2 on the dash display.

It usually swaps between the trip counter and such.

[elniniol999]

ta! give it a shot tomorrow. seen as my dealer didnt bother today

[Simon72]

Just remember the above instructions were written for a MK1 C2 not sure which button you use for the MK2

[elniniol999]

ill play trial and error

[Ogwen69]

Brill - thanks a million Bump

Wifey is pleased - she's fussy about things like the spanner, and although i have serviced the car for her she wanted to take it to a garage to get rid of it.

No need now!

right , here is a clue , reseting the service indicator is in the owners manual :)

[dirtydozen]

so which exact button do i press in the mark 2, whats its normal function please

[vampyyric]

just gave it a go and hey presto, back to 0. i've a mark 2 so it deffo works, nice one matey.

[c2vtr16v]

Reset service indicator ? U could always read your owners book , its in there .

[spudnando]

Thanks for the info on the service light, my dealer hasn't reset this although they have serviced the car in january. Have checked through my owner's manual and serivce book and I can't find the reset operation anywhere so i'm now off to try this and see if it works

[un1eash]

Just to confirm this does work on mk2's, did it on our 2007 VTS yesterday after my mate serviced the car at his garage.

One tip though is remove the key from the ignition, then press the button and insert the key and turn the ignition on. This worked for me.

[spudnando]

This worked for me too so thanks again :)

12,500 miles or 2 years whichever is sooner but some of the displays show the petrol mileage gap of 20,000 miles :?

mine is petrol & when i set i back it went to 20k

[patch58]

thanks guys,got my eye on a 08 plate 1.6 hdi think they look great to say they are a oldish design,with £35 tax and 62 to gallon can't go wrong but think they are a little on the high side price wise,oh one question do these have any kind of dpf and is there anything to look for when buying,cheers.

[Bump]

Yes the 1.6 HDi has the DFPS filter, hence it low CO2 and low tax 8)
