How to Reset the Engine Oil Life
System
The Engine Oil Life System calculates when to
change the engine oil and filter based on vehicle
use. Whenever the oil is changed, reset the system
so it can calculate when the next oil change is
required. If a situation occurs where you change the
oil prior to a CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message being turned on, reset the system.
If your vehicle does not have Driver Information
Center (DIC) buttons:
1. Turn the ignition to ON, with the engine off.
The vehicle must be in PARK (P) to access
this display. Press the trip odometer reset
stem until OIL LIFE REMAINING displays.
2. Press and hold the trip odometer reset stem
until OIL LIFE REMAINING shows 100%. You
will hear three chimes and the CHANGE
ENGINE OIL SOON message will go off.
3. Turn the key to OFF.
If the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message
comes back on when you start your vehicle,
the engine oil life system has not reset.
Repeat the procedure.
