[s-cars] Re: Service interval reset

[northrup]

Can it really be that a TOOL is required to reset the service indicator? 
On the '00 S4, a tool is not required, actually pretty much ever make or 
model of car that I've owned allows for the service light to be reset 
without the use of a special tool.  Generally there is a sequence of 
either holdind down a button, or maybe pulling on a knob for ~10 seconds.
