Signum / Vectra C service light

How does this thing work? Is it oil viscosity measurement, or a simple
count of engine starts?

Also, if I take it to a non Vauxhall garage, will they be able to reset the
service light ?

Goes by mileage 20k, 30k depending if it has been programmed for flexi or
normal servicing or time.
Easy to reset - no tools needed.

 

I thought it said somewhere in the manual the service milage interval would
vary depending on how you operate it.

that's if it's been set for Flexi servicing ... if it's been set for normal
servicing it'll pop up every 20k no matter how you drive like mine does,
going to ask for it to be changed at the next service.

It's a warning light to tell you that "You've brought a Vauxhall and
you should get rid of it and by a proper car." Hope this helps.

 

Hmm, it has done 15K since the last service, and is giving me the 1k
warning. The last owner must have driven it like a c**t, cos the 7k I have
owned it for counted down 1 for 1 (unless they put cheap oil in and set it
to 15k).

Since it is a diesel engine, it should have done 30k!
