Hi, I am new to this forum and am very much not a petrol head.

My 2015 Nissan 1.2 was serviced back in June, but for some reason the above reminder has now popped up. Should I:

(a) Panic, take it to a garage and get it sorted before driving anywhere else;
(b) Don't worry too much, but get the oil and filter changed in the next month or so;
(c) Relax, it's just a system glitch, you can safely wait until its annual service before dealing with it (but move to (a) if any other warning lights show in the meantime).

Thanks in advance!

I would go for neither.

It appears the service interval was not reset when you had it serviced. Phone the garage up where you had this done and verify why it was not reset and why it's showing now. They should have all the answers for you.

Have you done 12,500 miles since the service?

Thanks both! No, nothing like 12500 miles, it's only usually used for short journeys, so would be surprised if we've done more than 3000 miles since the service. I'll give the garage a ring.

Have I missed something, isn’t the service interval 12 months or 18,000 miles ?

Just go into ‘settings’ using the buttons on the steering wheel and reset the oil advisory. It is only a reminder, it has nothing to do with oil quality/condition/pressure or level.
