Service message in XC V70-XC70 2003


Hey all,


During a visit from my folks this past weekend I had an opportunity to ride/drive in their '03 XC70. However, while driving the car I noticed a message coming from the trip computer (left corner on instrument cluster). It read "Service Recommended" or "Service Required;" I can't remember what it said exactly. At any rate, my dad became a little concerned that the computer would say that message. The car just turned 63k miles.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there a recommended 60k mile service for '01 and up XC70s? And one more thing, can you reset a trip computer or service reminder manually from your home, like you can with an 850 or 940? Advice is appreciated- thanks!
