Been done quite a bit this one. A software bug in mile/km conversion means you'll see it after driving two feet I believe. Do a search and you'll find threads on this as well as the button combo to reset it. Just get the oil changed every year / 10,000 miles and you'll be fine.

reset the reminder following the procedure in the FAQ at the top of the page
the reminder comes on every 9k'ish or twelve months which ever comes first and should have been reset when you had your service. its also said that there was a screw up with the miles/Km conversion so 15000km = 10000miles'ish


i knew someone would type faster than memoan

Try it again, make sure you switch ignition to the 2nd position while pressing both arrow buttons and hold it for a few seconds until it beeps then press 'set'. I had to do mine the other day but it only reset it properly after the 2nd attempt for some reason. If this doesn't work then carry on swearing and get the hammer out smash
