Default Service in 2 flashing on a 97 A8

Just purchased a VAG-COM cable so I can pull and clear codes.

After having an oil and filter change from a local shop, I noticed a flashing Service in 2 light on the instrument cluster next to the odometer reading. Searched the forums and came up with the suggestion of clearing the instrument cluster with the VAG-COM software, but still have indication. How do you clear this indication?

PS Just cleared a bunch of codes and recoded the trans. Codes are posted below:

Default Re: Here

Thanks, will try.

PS What's with the ECM incorrectly Coded code I'm getting?

Is it possible that the shop I took the car to changed the code from factory? Should I attempt to recode the ECM to what the service manual states?
