When I start my car, the pic of a car with the word service comes on. However, this is in the clock/temp area. Below it says that I have 5k more to go before service is due. Is this a concern? TIA

It's not a concern. You can take your car in before the regular scheduled maintenance. Give your SA a call and ask if it's ok it bring it in early.

Is the word "service" in red? If it is its the same problem I had. Called the dealer, JMK, and he said bring the car in. Upgraded the software and did some other service work and everything is fine.
Good luck
cheers

I never let the service light go on, I change the oil about evey 8000km just to keep the engine tip top.
But that is OK on your screen just make a booking to get it service now.

Did read an old Harold Robbins book "The Secret" , few days ago.

Have fun or something
