I have an 02 LC. New purchase. Now, it's just had its 'service' light on, so needs it's 30k service.

Q1:Can any garage do this (and consequently remove the 'service light) or does it have to be a VAG garage? My nearest Seat dealer is fecking miles away so wondered if I can just take to a VW dealer?
Q2:My Engine management light came on today. NO discernable symptoms at all, in fact I drove it 200 miles back from Cornwall :whistle: with it fine. No loss of power, no noises, coolant, oil, etc all fine.Absolutely nothing wrong I can find and all electrics fine. So, 've searched for threads and it seems resetting the ecu may help in the absence of a VAGCOM unit (anyone with one in Bristol? :) ) Can I detach the earth terminal? Shouldnt make a difference should it? Unless the ecu earths to chassis?

Many thanks for ANY help!

Q1 yes any garage as long as it uses the vag recommend stuff.

Q2 something prob very simple just get someone to look at it disconnecting the battery for a while can sometime make it go.
