The 'book service time' message has come up, which I can delete, but only until the next time the car is switched on. It's not due a service, either in mileage or time, so I'd like to erase it permanently, but I can't find a way to do it through the menu screens, (I have rtfm'd!)

Can it be done?

Thanks

This reminder comes up a month before the service is due , Just ignore it , it goes away after 2 minutes , Don't forget to book the service !

There is a way to do it with just the car's controls and the ignition key, I had to use it on my first C70 not long after I got it. I don't remember exactly how but I do recall that in the process it'll reset one of the two trip odometers.

All I did was google 'Reset Volvo C70 service indicator' or something similar (try S40 or V50 if no joy, they're the same). One of the results I got was a YouTube video, think it was the Mr.Fixit.pl channel.

Hope this helps
