Oil life & reset procedures
Engine oil life system reset
Before you start
- Reset the system whenever the engine oil is changed so that the system can calculate the next engine oil change.
Steps
- Display the oil life percentage on the DIC. See Driver Information Center (DIC) (Base Level) 0 145 or Driver Information Center (DIC) (Midlevel and Uplevel) 0 146.
- Press the thumbwheel on the steering wheel, or the trip odometer reset stem if the vehicle does not have DIC
- If the display changes to 100%, the system is reset.
You’ll know it worked: The oil life will change to 100%.
Use of the incorrect automatic transmission fluid may damage the vehicle, and the damage may not be covered by the vehicle warranty.
