My new 09 Jetta just went past 10000 miles. After reading the horror stories about dealers i decided to change the oil myself. I bought the proper oil and filter. I also got one of those extractors and that made it a snap.
So my oil is changed yet i now have the stupid dash reminder telling me to go service the car cause it is over 10000 miles. I changed the oil and filter at 9679 miles.
Am i correct to assume that it just wont go away? Am i going to have to go to the dealer and tell them i did the service myself and to please clear the message off my dash?
Am i also safe to assume that they will do this for free since i am under the "carefree maintenance program"?
Eitherway i was hoping to avoid going to them at all.
Edit: Sorry for posting this here. I thought i was in the TDI 101 forum. Egg is on my face.
