45k Maintenance
I am going to do my 45k maintenance check myself. Two questions:
1. Part of the 45K and at most service checks have to do the "Diagnosis system: Read out fault memory." How important is this? There are no "idiot lights" flashing.
2. If #1 not important, will my CPO warranty still be valid if I omit this check or have documentation that it was performed?
I do not have the cable to do the read out but will pick one up if needed.
Thanks

I had the same questions...
Ultimately I decided to use a dealer to do the 45K service... BUT... I called around and found that there was A LOT of variability in pricing. In the end I think I paid somewhere around $350...

To stay in the contract it has to be done by a qualified tech. Sorry about the joke. I was worse on my first reply
