Is there any way other than going to the dealer to have the service reminder re set.? I had the first olilchange done at the dealer and was ripped for 100 Can. I saw they attached the hand held unit to reset the reminder. Any other was to reset the Nag ??

Thanks

Look up the forum on VagCom. It is a handheld diagnostic tool you can buy yourself for between $350 and $600. It will let you reset your alarms and warning, increase rev limits etc.
