Does anyone know how to reset the service indicator on a 2016 GLC300 4Matic?

Ive searched the threads and Googled it but no luck for the GLC, I have tried a couple other models but no joy.

Same as every other new benz...

Doors and hood closed
Ign to position 1, just one step from full off
Set to basic mileage display with trip meter.
Press "accept call" button on steering wheel, followed by "OK" button within 1 second afterward and hold until menu pops up.
Then go to assyst plus, follow prompts for reset.

Rex, I believe your car has the R button the side of the cluster? Cycle the menu until you get to the maintenance screen. Press and hold the R button for a couple seconds, the display should change to a screen asking if you want to reset. Let go, and press once. Should take care of it.

Very true, but the reset procedure has nothing to do with the actual service.

If you wanted to be diligent and perform the full service yourself, or pay another shop to do the oil change and hope they inspect and do the other things related to the service, there should still be a simple way to reset it. We at the dealer use this same method, we don't go in and reset with the SDS, it's not necessary as we are using the correct oil the system is calibrated for.

Thanks for your time and suggestion for my reset problem.
Yes, the R button is on the right and when I cycle through the menu I cannot even display the mileage screen.
My vehicle is a 2004 CLK 320 with a more complicated sequence steps.
Even following the manual does not work for service A.
I was able to reset the oil message a month ago after using the suggested MB oil.
Maybe the reset procedure changed with the 2004 model evolution? Still LOST.
Thanks again

From the mileage screen, if you press the R button three times quickly, does it beep and change to a voltage display? If so, you should be in the service menu and can scroll down to the reset option. Pretty sure you have to have the key in position 2, full on, for that. Might only be in position 1 though.

Works just fine. Changed oil at 1k. Would never even think to have a dealer change the oil as most are incompetent. I will probably change in another 5k but, the reset won't be required at that point. I also bled the brakes which had a suprising amount of air in system considering factory fill and changed the front and rear diff fluid. Total spent ~$100 and about 1.5 hours of work.

Update on Resetting Maintenance Message

Instead of pressing "pick up call" followed by "ok" within 1 sec, press both at the same time (simultaneously) until the next screen display that shows "ASSYST Plus" appears... then just follow the instructions accordingly.
