Introduction to resetting the maintenance reminder on a Golf: First, turn off the ignition switch and press the reset button on the instrument cluster. Then, turn on the ignition switch and release the reset button. Next, press the OK button on the wiper lever, and after a few seconds, the maintenance reminder will automatically reset. Here is some related information about resetting the maintenance reminder: 1. The purpose of the maintenance reminder light is to alert the owner to perform maintenance as soon as possible. Therefore, the owner should promptly visit a 4S shop for maintenance. After the maintenance is completed, the 4S shop will use a diagnostic tool to reset the maintenance reminder light. 2. The quickest and most accurate method to reset the maintenance reminder light is by using a diagnostic tool. Since most owners do not have access to such equipment, it is recommended to reset the reminder light at a 4S shop after maintenance or visit an external 4S shop for the reset.

I also encountered this issue with the maintenance light not resetting when I first drove my Volkswagen Golf. Resetting it yourself is quite simple: first, turn the car key completely off without starting the engine. Then, locate the small button on the right side of the dashboard and hold it down. While keeping the button pressed, turn the key to the ignition-on position (but don't start the engine). Wait for about ten seconds, and the screen will display "SERVICE RESET" or flash before returning to normal. Release the button, and you're done. This method works for most recent Golf models, though the button location or details might vary slightly depending on the year, so it's best to check the user manual for confirmation. Why reset it? A constantly illuminated light can give false maintenance alerts, and ignoring it long-term might cause you to miss actual service intervals, potentially harming the engine. Don’t forget to reset it after regular maintenance to keep accurate records—it's a handy life hack.

Are the front bumpers replaced at 4S shops genuine OEM parts?

Under normal circumstances, if you request a 4S shop to install an original bumper, they are usually required to use genuine OEM parts. Here is some relevant information about bumpers: 1. The advantage of OEM bumpers lies in their toughness; even under high pressure, they are unlikely to deform. Additionally, since they are supplied directly by the manufacturer, their quality is naturally better guaranteed. 2. OEM bumpers come pre-painted when they leave the factory. However, some 4S shops may source parts from aftermarket suppliers to increase profits. These bumpers are often painted by the 4S shop afterward, which is not as stable as the OEM production line and may even have color discrepancies. Therefore, after replacing the bumper, be sure to check for the OEM logo or label. If it is not genuine, you can negotiate with the 4S shop.
