How To Reset Volkswagen VW Caddy Service Inspection Messages

Last Updated on October 3, 2021 by Nick

Hello folks! Today, I just got a short content showing you how to reset the oil service and the inspection light on this VW Volkswagen Caddy. It’s a reasonably short reset on these, but it is done in two parts. You have the oil service reset separately to the inspection.

Now on this model, at the minute, we’ve only got the inspection flagging up, but I’ll run through the showing you how to do the reset for both. So let’s go ahead now and try it for ourselves.

How To Reset Oil Service/Inspection Light On VW Volkswagen Caddy

For your info, this operation work for the third generation of the VW Volkswagen Caddy 2K (2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 model years).

VW Caddy Service Reset

This is a short guide to show you how to reset the service light on a VW Caddy. So let me guide you through the procedure.

With Basic Display

• First, with the ignition off you’re going to press and hold the 0.0/SET button

• While holding it you’re gonna turn the ignition on but not start it
• Then release the button and push the ❏ button and the wrench will disappear

With Premium Display

Time needed: 3 minutes

Alright, we’re in the VW Caddy with the premium display. All you need is to press the set button on the right-hand side and the OK button underneath the wiper stalk or on the steering wheel. So let’s do it.

1. Press and hold the 0.0/SET button

   With the ignition off hold down the 0.0/SET button on the cluster

2. Turn on the ignition without starting the engine

   Next, turn on the ignition as you keep hold it down

3. Press the OK button to confirm

   When it asks you to reset the oil service light, all you need to do is press OK on the steering wheel or on the wiper stalk

So now doing the inspection reset is the same way but with turning your hazard lights on.

With Basic Display

• First, you want to turn on your hazard lights

• Go ahead and press the 0.0/SET button and then you turn the car on without starting the engine. So obviously you do not have your foot on the brake
• After that, you can let go of the 0.0/SET button and you can come around to the ❏ button on the left side and press it once

With Premium Display

• First, we’re gonna turn the car off 
• The next step is to switch on the hazard light
• Then hold the 0.0/SET button on the right-hand side and then turn on the ignition
• As soon as it does it’ll ask you to reset the inspection service and all you do is press OK
• Now you can turn off the hazard light and you’re ready to go

Good job, guys! So simple as that, of course, the savings may only be in the short term. Without a set of dealer stamps in the service book, cars like this can be worth up to 15% less, but that’s not going to put me off because doing your own service is so rewarding. Anyway, thanks for your time and see you next time.Tags:Caddy Service Inspection Messages, Caddy Service Light Reset, How to Reset oil on Volkswagen Caddy, Volkswagen Caddy Inspection Minder, Volkswagen Caddy Oil Reset, Volkswagen Caddy Oil Service, VW Caddy Inspection Reset, VW Caddy Service Inspection
