Ah, I wasn't aware that was a thing, but it's interesting to know. Is there a way to change it without some expensive diagnostics?

It's only possible to also the service schedule using JLR SDD, which is LR's diagnostic software for these vehicles.

Out of interest, how is the service indicator being reset?

Pressing the brake and accelerator with ignition on 1 and holding for a minute until the indicator goes off.

It's looking like a trip to a stealership, isn't it?

That's not the correct way to reset the service reminder, I don't know what that little dance sequence does, but it's not the service indicator reset.

To reset the service indicator, do as follows.

Slide the fob into the dock so it's drawn in.
Now press and hold the rectangular button directly below the odometer screen.
Keeping this button it pressed, press the start button, keeping feet off the brake or clutch. The ignition will come on to stage 2 (ignition on, engine off). Keep holding that rectangular button pressed until the word SERVICE stops flashing, at which point release the button, the work dist should come on the screen. When dist is on the screen, press and hole the button again, after a few seconds it'll come up with the new miles till next service. The next option is date, which can be used instead, it's reset in the exact same way.

I've found a video on YT, which shows the process faster than I can explain it.
