Legend, saved me from swearing at the car every time it beeped at start up and switch off 🙌🙌🙌
Thank you, having watched about 5 version s of this for the service interval, great instructions where the others failed. Thank you
Just glad it helped 😊
This
Omg the warning message was driving me insane! Your explanations/walk-through was perfect! Awesome video 👌
Here I am again! ...the best How To's are the simplest and well-explained, like this one. Incidentally, this simple procedure is listed on the Seat Service Schedule like it was some big deal....and....it's nowhere in the Handbook, implying that the car owner is not bright enough to do this...Seat; put-this-procedure-in-the-Handbook! Thanks.
Manufacturers will do anything they believe will make them money 💰
Perfect, just what I needed. Thank you !
Straight to the point, excellent!
Thank you very much, this has been the most accurate instruction online!
Thank you. First one that I've tried that actually works a d hasn't wasted my time. Good for a mk 5 ibiza too👍
Just Brilliant, I managed to reset The oil change and service, which had been completed on a friends Seat Leon, All thanks to your video.
Glad it helped 👍🏼
@@helpfulhappychappy ..does it work ..if you havent done the oil change ?
@@toosure69 I reccomend you change the oil as manufacturer states but it will reset whether the oil is changed or not using this method.
Thank you very much I have been trying to fix this for ages

In Denmark inspection service interval and oil change interval is the same. It is set to 2 years (730 days) or 30,000 km (18,700 miles.)

Thanks.

hi best video , i just wanna know i have problem due the gas in the oil can , when my fuel goes down near the 0 or low , the injector light turn off is there any way to reset this? i talking about the icon you have put in thumbnail of the video
To reset all other warning you will need to use an OBD reader that connects to you phone or a laptop. You will also need the software on the laptop or phone.
Does this work on seat Leon fr 2018?
It should yes. Recently worked on a 2017 Skoda Octavia which has the same ECU
@@helpfulhappychappy thanks a lot, I ask because I have an inspection service due now and an oil change service in 80 days according to car, I’m going to reset the oil change service though as why would I change the oil that soon after, it’s stupid.
@@markfowlermusic Agreed. Yes the stealers.... I mean dealers! will have you back as many times as they can to keep the cash rolling in. Just as an example, a friend of mine bought a 2017 Seat Ateca last year which has 32,000 miles on the clock, 28,000 when purchased. She recently took it for a service and they told her that her timing belt needed replacing at the cost of £1000! The service manager told her that the timing belts on new cars need changing every 3 years or 25000 miles, which ever comes first so she is lucky as it could void her warranty. I went back with her and they told me the same thing. I then went on to explain they had sold her the car when it was in fact 4 years old and 28,000 miles, therefore 1 year and/3000 miles past both trigger points and that is say in their small print for the sale of second hand vehicles that they will ensure that ANY required servicing of ANY kind will be completed as required by the manufacturer before they sell it. This, I said, means you need to do this for free as it should have been done before you sold it to my friend...... We are now waiting to see what the manufacturer says as he "believes" he may be mistaken on the frequency the timing belt needs changing!!! Shocker!
@@helpfulhappychappy yeah they just want to get rid of the cars and any issues, it’s all about keeping hidden issues hidden so they don’t have to deal with them, they can just be transferred easily to someone else without the knowledge. A grand is a shocking amount to pay and really disgusting of the dealer who sold that. I think my seat Leon is a cam chain so don’t think I need to worry about changing it anytime.
@@markfowlermusic The truth of the matter is that, on a seat Leon, the cam belt is recommended to be changed at 10 years or 100,000 miles. I felt like this was a long time so did mine at 80,000. None the less, 25,000 miles or 3 years is ridiculous and an outright lie, hence me spinning it back to them and then now changing their mind. And as you also said, £1000 is a fair price, for a dealer, but it usually includes changing the water pump at the same time as it's not many miles later that they recommend changing that and you have to change your timing belt again to get to it!! As a rule, an average price for a timing belt with accompanying water pump change, is £600 - £700. But obviously needs doing once every 8 years or so.
Thanks for your help 👍 🙂 🏴🇺🇦🤝🤝🤝😊🙌👏🤝
Can i remove triangle indicator like this>?
I did this once and it worked perfectly. Service came back and now it returns even though I get a "Service Reset" message.
Any idea?
There are 2 separate warning. Oil change and service inspection. If you clear one the second will still appear until you clear that too. Check the infotainment system as shown to see which one it is and then try to reset both. That should clear both warning and rest the milage.
How come engine light is staying on?
I cannot stop it saying ..service now...
Hey, Seat Leon 2016
Is there a way to get rid of message after turning ignition on “service in 299 days?”
After service days and kilometers reset it’s still showing up.
Thank you very much!
If you watch the whole video is shows how to reset the oil change warning & Inspection service warning, which are 2 separate things. If you reset both it will display as shown at the end of the video. Hope that helps 👍
@@helpfulhappychappy I did both, oil change warning and service warning. It’s my costumer’s car - didn’t see this problem before. I tried to check it thru diagnostic but can’t find any help.
I just don’t understand why it’s showing “Service in XXX days”, like this Leon in 299 days - you don’t want to look at this everyday after turning key on 🤣
I’ll try it again, thanks for reply!
@@milaanoo99 honestly never come across that before??? Very odd indeed!
Hallo,do you have a video,how to reset message on display "replace key car battery"?? SKODA FABIA 2019
You need to replace the battery in the key. You need to get a good quality brand, Duracel or Energizer CR2025. You can't reset this message by doing anything in the car.
@@helpfulhappychappy Thanks for your replay,i will try 2 duracells in sted of 2 varta CR2025,i hope that this will clear on the display
Can someone confirm I’m not going mad and the 1.2 tsi has a lifetime fuel filter?
Easiest way to find out is call the stealer..... Errr, I mean dealer!! 😂
If i want to just change my inspection and not my oil can it be done by skipping the oil service?
Yes, just skip to service inspection and reset that and it will leave the date & km/ml intact for the oil change.
@@helpfulhappychappy Thank you.
what about the leon with a cokpit display
Not sure about that one. This method works on all Mk 3 Leon's and VW group vehicles of the same era.
This works on audi a4 b9 ?
It did on the 2014 model. You'll have to try it and let me know 👍
this how they do it in service ? :D as they told me that only they can delete it after yearly car control ? :D is it same ?
This is exactly the same way that they do it. There is no difference. Hope that answers your question 👍
@@helpfulhappychappy thanks, amazing how they drag you to service because they are only one who can do it and you have to go for overprized service :D just wonder if they can complain if it will be "deleted" before coming
@@supermanjekar No, they won't see that you did it. All it does is reset the service mileage rather than the irritation message keep popping up. I obvious reckomend that you do change the oil and service your vehicle when you reset the warning however.
What leon do you have pal??
It's a 2013 Mk 3 184ps 2.0TDI
How come when i youtube my channel name it shows you??
X files needed but...
I found you so :)
Perhaps it's a case for the X-Files 😊
HelpfulHappyChappy lol
I don't get the service change option even if holding the button down for longer as shown. Any other method?
Ian Bradshaw what vehicle do you have as this works on Mk 3 Seat Leon and Mk 7 VW Golf. You just need to make sure the ignition is completely off and you push the button before you turn the ignition on.
HelpfulHappyChappy it's a 2013 Mk 3 Leon 1.6 Diesel. I'm sure I had the ignition completely switched off but will give it another go. Thanks for replying
Ian Bradshaw it is a very fiddly process. Let me know if you sort it 🖒
I can’t get the service inspection to come up just says reset service but does nothing
What vehicle do you have?
Hold the "0.0/Set" buttons with no key.
Pop key in turn ignition on and keep holding the button.
This should cycle through to reset options.
1.Reset Oil Change Service?
2.Reset Inspection Service - Are you sure?
Just remember to keep the "0.0/Set" button pushed in until it cycles to the one you wish to reset.
When it gets to the one you wish to reset, let go of the "0.0/Set" button and push it again which will show a message "Service Reset". This confirms each item has been reset. This has to be done for each item, doing one will not reset both. You can then check this on your infotainment system via the method also shown in the video.
Hope this helps 😊
I have the same problem with a 2012 seat leon 5f…
Ghe popup says „service reset?“ and you can reset it, which resets the oil service and not the inspection in the status screen on the navi…
I dont get the option for oil service and inspection service reset…
If i keep pressing the button, just the failure message to make the inspection pops up.
It is a car from austria, if that makes a difference, we have to go for inspection every year
Thank you 😮😅
Thank you
Thanks
