its probably oil...im not sure what else it indicates...but why is yours usually orange? mine is always green.

 

same here, green, what is it for? i always had this question

 

It's purely a maintenance reminder. It only changes based on the amount of KM (or miles ) since it was last reset. If you have had regular oil changes and maintenance, maybe the last time your shop changed the oil they forgot to reset the light.

If you want to reset it back to green, just stick the key in the little slot near the light. Do get that oil change done on time though

 

what key? or just any key?

 

yeah, any key or anything that will fit in there for that matter.
the light comes on every 7500 miles or so to remind that its time for a good little tune up.
