  1. Unable to reset the service wrench light on 2021 Kia Seltos premium with the instructions provided. I want to do my own oil changes but only have 12000 klms and I have this warning light event Bough changed oil twice since new.

  5. I think this had something to do with the recent system update that moved this option from the dash screen to the radio screen. Had my 2021 Seltos at the dealer and one by one no less than five different people claiming to know how to reset it walked away from my car in defeat. I wonder if running the update again would fix the issue???

  6. If you have an SX the dealer has to reset it manually with their scantool. We all need to be calling kia with a complaint about this so they will fix it with an update!
