You pay the tech so that you do not void your warranty. The OBDII machine they use if performing service carries an electronics signature, and being that you are dealing with a Databus system.. it is beside impossible to do it without the machine

Before you do any of the other things suggested attempt this. It frequently works. Disconnect the battery for five minutes, then reconnect. If the ECU locked this will frequently reset it. Its worth a attempt but make sure to have your radio code and keys out of the car.
