Service Interval Reset - Panda

Post by Zwierzak »

Hello!

In FES we can set only 20000 km distance to next service.

Would it be possible to set different distance like 8000, 10000 or 15000??
Because when you drive only in city the inspection period should be shorter than 20000 km...

I do not think this is possible.

The service interval data is managed in the instument cluster/head as a pre-programmed "step function". All Multiecuscan is doing is issuing the command to "increment service level" and the car does the mileage and date additions.

Servicing more frequently is always your option. What you need to decide is if you want to issue a service reset.

If it were me I would possible halve the service interval eg. every 10,000km and reset every 20,000km . Doing this would ensure that a service is done every 20,000km

The service interval function has predefined step. Multiecuscan (and most of the diagnostic equipment) simply sends a command to the instrument cluster to reset the service interval.

However, it is possible to program a user defined service interval in most of the instrument clusters. I may implement this function in future releases.
