service light

hi all does anyone know how to turn the service indicator off. Ive serviced and changed oil myself but cant seem to turn the light off. thanks

can be done with vagcom, or as follows

Service intervals: resetting without central diagnosis -VAS 5051-
(using the time and the odometer buttons on the dash panel insert)
During
t each inspection service,
the service interval display must be reset.
To reset the counter you must:
– Turn the ignition off.

– Keep button -1- next to the speedometer pressed and connect the ignition at the same time.
On the mileage display the word "service" will appear.

– Release the switch -1-.
– Turn the adjusting button -1- next to the speedometer, to the right.
The service type that appears on the odometer is reset and (- - -) appears on the display
After resetting the service interval display, the last partial mileage or the next service type will reappear.
– Turn the ignition off.

Hope that works for u always do mine with vagcom

Here's a bit of a clearer option

turn ignition OFF,
press and hold trip reset button,
switch ON ignition,
release trip rest button,
turn trip button clockwise until it goes out.
igniton OFF,
Igniton ON.

But no stamp in book, so too some buyers doesn't look like car has been serviced when and if sell.
Or do you have a method around this?
