Maint. Indicator...Am I missing something?

[shark]

I reset my indicator ok. It reset and showed 10000. When i drove it a few miles it does not count down. It stays on 10000. Am i missing something. I think it counted prior to the reset?!

[Big Panda]

After resetting it, did you drive off immediately without turning the ignition off? What did you do AFTER it was reset?

Can't understand why it would stay at 10,000.

Double checked myself. Went and drove 17 miles. Maint screen stays at 10000 when checked.does not count down. Who knows as long as no wrenches come on and bug me.

Ah, you lucky guy. Now you won't have to be bothered with it again.

Check back with us tomorrow.

After we passed our mileage it would say 100, 200, 300. Its not down to the mile I believe

$285 to be exact at 20k, Oil change, AC filter, brake fluid, and key batteries. The reason for changing the fluid at 20k is Mercede's doesn't want the fluid to get dirty and have to much moisture build up.

I do it myself. So i don't fear the 20k.

Shark, when you change brake fluid do you use a vacuum or pressure bleeder. Any recommendations on where to get such a tool?
