I've been driving a Volkswagen Lavida for several years, and turning off the maintenance reminder isn't too difficult. First, park the car, turn off the engine, and don't start it. Hold down the reset button on the dashboard. Then turn the key to the ON position (just power on without starting the engine), continue holding the button for about 5 to 10 seconds until the maintenance light goes off. Regular maintenance is crucial—changing the oil and filters on schedule can extend the engine's lifespan. Don't ignore the reminder out of laziness, or you might face issues like increased carbon buildup or higher fuel consumption. If the button doesn't respond, check the vehicle manual instead of forcing it, as the procedure might vary slightly depending on the Lavida model. Make it a habit to reset the reminder after each service to avoid unnecessary alerts next time. Doing it yourself saves time and helps you learn more about your car.
