Any idea how to change the service interval?
So the factory setting for the service interval is 20 000 km. Is there any way to change this? As far as I could see the fields in Star Diag where the values are set cannot be changed... but maybe there is still a way.. Any help is appreciated

The FSS allows for distances between 10,000 miles (Canada: 15,000 km) and 20000 miles (Canada: 30,000 km), or from 365 to 730 days between
services.
How do I do that? My question was not how to reset the service interval but how to change the distance traveled before the service reminder pops up.. Currently the interval is 20 000 km and I would like to change it to 10 000 if possible and if not then to 15 000.

Have you read "The counter can be set by any individual"?

Yes I did but if I understand it correctly this procedure just sets the interval of 15.000 km / 365 days which in my case is 20.000 km (European model). I still don't get if it is possible to modify the interval, not just set/reset it...
