On the Volkswagen Golf 7, the maintenance service light reset procedure is as follows: turn on the instrument cluster, then press and hold the button located between the rev counter and the speedometer and wait for the spanner light and the attached text message to disappear.

This procedure should only be performed after completing all scheduled tasks listed in the owner's manual, such as oil change, oil filter, and so on. The timing of each service is always linked to either mileage or elapsed time.
