Unhappy Service Light Reset

Hi all,

I just finished up my A3 service myself by the book and trying to reset my service indicator. I followed the steps documented here https://erwinsalarda.com/how-to-rese...service-light/ and now the truck is saying that I am behind in my B service 14K miles. Did I do something wrong?

If you already reset it, try driving for a while (500 miles probably way less than that maybe just need 50 or 100 miles? I can't remember completely) and then do the reset again it should let you then and no longer display service overdue.

Service light reset

Same thing happened to me. I was able to reset the service reminder after the second or third day. Must be a computer glitch.
