I haven't seen those particular error messages - did they actually have question marks on your display (?)

In any event, have you had your car for over one year? We drive our car less than 10,000 miles per year. When we got to eleven months after delivery of our car, the service indicator started counting down the days until the one-year anniversary - even though it had previously indicated that service wasn't due for like 2500 miles. Apparently the service indicator insists on service at least once per year, regardless of mileage. Possibly that's what happened with your car - the 30-day countdown could have happened during the 1 1/2 months that your car wasn't driven.
