it means "change your oil". You have to reset it each time you change the oil.

if the maintenance light is on in the ep3, that means the engine will blow in the next 50 miles.






























really though? it is an automatic light that comes on when you hit a certain amount of miles to remind you to maintain your car

It doesn't mean anything, it comes on automatically every couple thousand miles. Here's how to turn it off:
