I tried reseting the rear brake mileage service and i ended up giving it "-------" as result, plus the lifted car image turned red and the word "brake" on the dashboard turned red... What can i do now?

Are your brakes worn, because that usually means the brake pads are below 3mm and the sensor was worn down that far. Did you replace any brakes? If you did, you will also need to replace the brake wear sensor in order to reset the light.

I got the same message popping up but I knew it was coming...If I replaced the brakes myself, you say replacing the sensor will reset the light. How about resetting the computer to tell me when my brakes will be out again?

You need to do both, replace the sensors and reset the computer. Check out our FAQ for instructions on how to access the hidden config menus.

I am also looking for the hidden configs menu, but I can't find it in the FAQ section. Can you tell me where to find it?
