I am looking for a reliable and honest service tech to help me with my 2016 e-golf. The service light is on and I really don't want to drop several $100 to get it turned off. I am having a hard time determining what they might do for $300. That is what the local VW dealer want for a scheduled service call. I live in the Seattle area
 
I don't have my manual handy, but you should check yours to see what is required. How many miles on your car? I'm guessing you only need a tire rotation and some checks. If it's a dealer, of course it will charge more than independent shops. Maybe look for a local EV shop?
 
To reset the service message I found this on you tube.
It says to turn off ignition then hold 0.0 button (trip odo) until screen prompts then release and push again to reset.

Is it the Get service message or a needs service there is a problem message?

If it is the message as mentioned by kpache. The only thing you need to also do is: uncheck any person profiles in the infotainment system prior to clearing the code. There is a software bug that blocks the code clearing IF there is a personal profile active.
