    Service Reminder shut off

    Well, I've got 18000 miles on my '10 and just saw my first "service reminder" message. Since I do most of my own work, can I just go reset it now or should I wait until I hit the mileage it's trying to remind me of? It says Service Due in 600 miles. Thanks in advance.

    Question for anyone with a 2010 GTI

    OK, the car is absolutely a wonder to drive. One dumb question. When you start it up, the oil pressure light DOES NOT come on and then go out like every other car I have owned. Before I run to the dealer, anyone else seeing this? The crankcase is at the full point, and I've driven 1000 miles...
