It’s a fault I’m pretty sure there’s a recall on them, something to do with a different dipstick.

Engine service means that there is a fault, how do you reset it? By pressing the pedals?

Reset it by pressing the brake and accelerate down then turn ignition on,what for reset message,turn off and leave for as long as possible.

That way your not resetting the code that is there because of the fault, your resetting the oil service reminder. Two completely different things. Have it read by a code reader to determine which codes are stored.
