Use the mk5 section for these questions.

Do a search too, I'm sure this has been asked and answered before.

VAGCOM will reset it.

my one has a spanner for the service and none of the below

OEL 1,S   - distance counter for oil change (ie 7500 miles normally)
   OEL 2,S - time counter for oil change (ie 12 months)
   IN 01,S - time counter for yearly service interval (ie 12 months)
   IN 02,S - distance counter for special service (ie 15,000 miles )

Just sorted it out guys anone else that needs to reset theres.

When the car is off, hold the reset button on the right side of the dash (0.0). Then turn the key on (not the engine) and once the service now words come out on the display press the minute(m) button on the right. That should turn the service now off.

FYI the re-set in this way only works if your car is set to T&D, not the long-life regime.
