2016 GLA250
Oil Change
I changed the oil and filter the other day and was looking for a way to reset the oil reminder that keeps poping up. There is great info on how to do a 2015 but it doesnt work on a 2016.... Called the service department in Colorado Springs left a message. Four hours later STILL no return call so I called back talked to a very unfriendly guy that said there was a way but they wont say. BUT for $70 they will reset it using a code reader. wtf. Does anyone know what the proper order of button pushing to reset the oil reminder on a 2016 GLA 250 is?
Thanks Rich

So it seems Mercedes changed the firmware on my wife's GLA so I can no longer reset the ASSYT Plus oil change indicator.
I go to the service menu and then down to the ASSYT Plus and when I click on that, it says it needs service. There is no longer a menu for resetting.
Does anybody know of a new method for resetting the oil indicator?

Reset, Hooray!!!
To quote Hapa88, the commands are the same on the 2015 GLA but the key for me was the requirement for hitting the OK button within 5 seconds of getting the TRIP highlighted in the multi-function display.
Read instructions here. Ignition position 1 is pressing the start button once without your foot on the brake.
Ignition position 2 is pressing the start button a second time without your foot on the brake.
