Maybe this topic (Service reset) qualify for a sticky status?...
And if it is possible to merge the numerous threads on the same subject in just one in Maintenance & Modifications or Technical?...

What does the service interval counter look like? (Past) Freelander 2 HSE 2010 MY In Rimini Red.
(Past) RR Evoque Dynamic Lux Si4 In Firenze Red.
(Past) RR Evouque Pure Tech in Barollo Black with bespoke Firenze Red colour coding.
(Present) Freelander Metropolis 2015 MY In Santorini Black with Ivory Premium Leather.

If you have read the manual, you have found the answer on page 165....

here is a simple demonstration of how to do it



and no its not me!!!!  Now - 2017 BMW X3 M Sport Carbon Black
Gone - 2014 BMW X3 M Sport Space Grey, faultless!
Gone - 2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE Bali Blue with xenons
Gone - 2008 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Rimini Red with bodykit

i followed the instructions and I can get the date reset but it gives me a message saying it cant reset the distance.
It is a first service and I was 750 miles past the distance but surely that should not stop me being able to reset it ?
any suggestions ?

This si a nightmare to do. I have treid numerous times and it just keeps saying can't reset !

Quote from the manual:
NOTE: The distance trigger will not reset if the distance the vehicle has traveled is less than 20% of the next service interval value.

So next service is at 45000 and it's done 44,450 should it reset ?

"service interval value"

Service interval value is 15000 miles by default, from what I'm remembering...
So it won't reset if you traveled less than 3000 miles since the last reset...

I do about 4000 a year or there abouts. I have had no problem in resetting the service settings either by the reset counter way or using my diagnostics meter

Another useful tip I found on here was the "Oil Service" reset. Be if I can find the thread now to suggest adding it here but maybe someone else knows how to do it. I jave purchased the Nanocom Evolution which takes care of this procedure
