Hi! When You reseted the oil service indicator there was number (986) what does it mean? Litres of gasoline till next oil change? And the next timer ir days till next service interval? Can we change it?
Txh for replay!
Most likely yes – those are counter of days and liters till next change.
Without diagnostic interface you can not adjust those values.
