Service light wont go out!
I know this has been covered to death but I need to turn my service light out.
Iv tried ECU reset and disconnected the battery for ages but it never goes out!
I even bought a fault code reader to try turn it out but no luck on that front ether.
How can I do it??

You can clear the code as many times as you would like but until you fix the problem that is throwing to code it will just keep coming back on...

Iv heard this a few times, Il have a look this weekend. that would also explain my SLIP and tcs light come on as soon as I move the car!
Iv tried a fault readear but nothing comes up so il ckeck out the sensors behind the wheel then if nothing il get it to a garage.

your doing it wrong - if theres a check engine light - there is a code. If you REALLY want it to go away. Take it to the dealership. They will charge you 95 bucks to do it - but it will be gone and you wont have to worry about it for at least 40-60 miles later...
