"Service Due Now" light

I just changed the oil in my CLK when the computer said so, but now I can't get the "Service Due Now" warning to go away. I know on GMs you hit the gas pedal 3 times and fords its the brake pedal, so what is it in MBs to make it go away. I used a new filter and did all 8.5 qts with synthetic, so I see no other reason for the light to still be on (air filter looks good, tranny, everything).

Its a little more complicated than you might think. Take it to the service center and ask them to reset the service indicator for you.

I have a 99, so I was using that method, but nothing yet. Anymore ideas besides the dealer?

I live in the sticks and I'm a hard-headed redneck. Also I like to pretend like I know whats going on. Not sarcastic, I really do.
