get to the oil life screen.. hold down the reset button until the oil life starts flashing. once it starts flashing, press and hold it again until it resets..

they don't mean any harm, it's just that you are one of 8,000 people to come on here and ask that, and 99% of the people both have the car's manual and don't search.

don't get offended, if you stick around long enough you'll feel the same ; )

there are some very knowledgeable people in this subforum so you'll be in good company.

welcome, BTW

how do you reset your trip odometer? Do you need the manual for that, or do you even know what that is? I'm surprised you can figure out how to turn on the car, and actually maneuver it to and from where you're going. Press and hold isn't common sense, and takes a college degree to figure out....no wait...it is you moron. The human race is doomed if people like you decide to reproduce. No offense. Welcome : )
