Today we will see how to reset the service on a Citroen C5, model produced from 2008 to 2017. So the procedure is very simple to perform and we can do it independently in just a few seconds after changing the engine oil and the corresponding filter on our car, but let's see immediately how to proceed.

First of all, we need to press and hold the "000" button on the speedometer and then turn on the vehicle's ignition without starting it. After doing this, we will see a ten-second countdown on the display, so we continue to hold down the "000" button until the countdown expires to reset and complete the job.
