You can drive it as long as you want, it's up to you when you take it in,
and your timing belt is not due on the 110k mile service, unless you changed
it at around 60k. if you have not have the timing belt done at all, I would
suggest not driving it all, as 110k miles is asking for serious trouble.

I have an audi A4 and it shows IN2 on the dashboard. Does any one from melbourne have a wagcom scan tool. I really don't want to go to the dealer.

Needs to be serviced/INspected and that light reset by a vag-com tool or
read here......
When the dealer services your car, they are supposed to reset the oil or
service interval warning light that comes on in place of your trip odometer
when you start your car. It can be temporarily reset, by pushing the
odometer reset. But when the ignition is turned off, the service warning
will reappear when you restart your car. To reset it permanently, follow
these instructions:
Insert your key into the ignition.
Push in the odometer reset button, hold it in, and turn the key to the first
click.
The display should read either "oil" or "service" if it does not, repeat
steps #1 and #2.
To reset, pull out your instrument light dimmer button at the bottom of the
tachometer.
Turn the ignition to the off position. When the ignition is turned back on,
the display should be back to the trip odometer.
Note: This procedure has been confirmed on '98 and '99 model year A4's.
