Citroen C3 - reset service indicator? - RichProc
I've got a Citroen C3 1.4 HDI 16v SX.

It was serviced at 8,264 miles then at 21,046 miles. It's now done 30,500 miles and the service indicator is saying it has around 1,000 miles left until a service.

Now the manual says it's due a service every 20,000 miles, and all the mileage I've done from 21k to 31k has been motorway miles. It seems like there's a fault with the service indicator so I want to reset it - does anyone know the exact sequence of tricks to get it reset to add another 10k?

Thanks Rich

Not sure if this'll work on a C3, but on a Berlingo you press and hold down the trip reset and then turn on the ignition. The LCD odometer display then counts down and when gets to zero the service reminder has been reset.
