(they are separate sections to reset in the Carista app)

iaflyer,

Where is the option to reset service interval in the app ? I got my bluetooth adapter today, was able to enable remote windows and some other features, but can't find the oil service reset.

I am in the beta program, so maybe it hasn't been released to everyone yet. Just email them and they should add you, took no effort to join it. The resets were in the "Tools" menu, here's what it looks like on mine, in version 3.0 beta 300002:

Thank you so much!!!

I joined their beta testing program today, clicked a link on their website,then updated the app in Google play. Worked perfectly ! For $5.99 each time I can now reset oil service interval. It can also open my rear parking brakes and read all codes( obd2 and vag codes) Definitely worth the money - $40 for the adapter,$20 for the pro app.
