Is there a straightforward way of stopping the trip speedo coming up with INSP ? The car is a year old, and has had a service at the local independent. The mechanic is on holiday just now, and I don't want to go out of my way to a main dealer. Car is a 2005 Astra 1.6 Club, petrol.

Yes there is . It is something like turning the key in the ignition while holding down the trip reset .

Make sure having the car serviced by an independant won't screw up your 3 yr warranty on the car.

Thanks for that DD.
I got four dashes on my display. Maybe it's because it's a newer model, but it did it, so all is well.
AFAIK the warranty is not cancelled by using an independent so long as genuine parts are used.
Thanks to all who replied.
