Service Warning light illuminates again after 3-4k miles?


Recommended Posts

I have a 2004 Cayenne Turbo with 36k miles that the service warning light keeps coming on every 3-4k miles. I don't drive it much and picked with 28k miles about a year ago. Everything seems perfect. As a former aircraft mechanic I always do the easy stuff myself and changed the oil about 1500 miles ago when it last illuminated this same way-non specific and no faults indicated. I had the dealer reset the light while having a few minor warranty items complied with. Now its back on.

The light has no faults associated with it that would show on the cluster (I don't have a Durametric) - but does specify I need "service in 2000 miles".

Anyone familiar with this?

I assume it shouldn't be the oil and the 40K service is 4k miles out not 2k.

Any ideas?

Are this lights predictive on brake wear or something like that?
