Just had service but clocks do not show miles to next service???

Hi all,

Just had my B7 A4 serviced earlier this week at a local garage. They said they reset the service interval but when i click the spanner it doesn't give a milage/time until the next service, just has '--- miles'. Is this normal or should it say how many miles remaining straight after resetting?

I wasn't sure whether you had to drive a few hundred miles before it started calculating or whether the garage have done something wrong trying to reset it?

Cheers

Just keep track manually, don't always rely on machines

Yeah it should start working in a few days/ some miles. I was confused when it happened to me too. I'm sure there's a specific mileage/ time, but I have no idea what it is.

It took the bloke 25 mins to do apparently, so would rather know its been done right if I paid for the privilage.

As said above, you'll be alright, it'll just do its normal co outer work, rubbish, and calculate it.

8-12k I say depending on how much you drive.
