These short and simple steps will allow us to reset the service reminder (oil change) of the Volkswagen Golf. First, we get on board the car and start the instrument panel; then we use the steering wheel controls located on the right to go to the vehicle settings and then to the service menu, as shown in the video.

At this point, we confirm and perform the reset of the service mileage counter, thus resetting the maintenance key and the service light on the instrument panel display!
