[s-cars] SRI ; was n00b question

[Donna Green]

Those are #2 service reminders ( 30K miles or 24months).  Your friend  
has
the advantage since the owners manual has a simple reset proceedure for
the A4.  The URS cars have a variable interval set with the VAG 1551  
at the
dealer ( you can buy your own from Zelenda or Baum) or the VAG-COM
software and cable for a laptop, or ShadeTree software and connectors  
for
some handheld computers.  Use one of these electronic tools to reset  
your
SRI.  You may find In 1 and Oil indicators beneath the In 2  
indicator.  Pushing
in the trip odometer reset will stop the flash and display the  
odometer reading
immediately until you shut down and restart.

Perhaps there is a lister or NAAC member close  by with a VAG-COM if  
you ask.
The dealer diagnostic charges are getting ridiculous, so save that  
for a real need.
