Engine System Service Required - no fault code
hi
understand this is a a common query but mine is even stranger than normal! (I think)
i got the famous ‘engine system service required’ however when the mechanic ran their computer on it (engine and transmission) no fault codes came up.
also there was no associated triangle or anything else, just the message
oh and he also checked the oil level was bang on
any ideas / suggestions?

Bumping this.
Approx 2 weeks after the mechanic reset the warning it has reappeared today
when I hold down the reset button I get a 042 code.
i will take it back in as it is within warranty but was wondering if anyone has any idea of what it may be?
ive read it could be having too much engine oil? On checking the dipstick it does seem to be right on the max line..?

Right on. You are correct.

Update...it was the oil!
You are Exactly right. My oil level prompted the same sign on message window. Oil level was high. When reduced the sign goes away. Though there could be some other scenarios too which no one has pin pointed but this is one of the reasons. Can worn plugs or any other issues cause that too only Volvo Factory Techs should be able to tell if they are honest. But that is a hard to find thing these days.
