The "Service Vehicle Soon" message doesn't actually mean that. It's the misleading "you've got an engine management fault" message. Instead of Vauxhall using a Car/spanner light, you now get the SVS message instead.

In short, it needs putting on a fault code reader to find out what's triggered it.

If the oil life is low enough then yes the SVS message could mean just that.

If the oil life isn't low then as you say it's pointing to something else.

Mine says "change engine oil soon" when oil life only has a few % remaining.
