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 OIL LIFE REMAINING on the DIC. See Driver Information Center (DIC) (Base Level) on page 5-27 or Driver Information Center (DIC) (Uplevel) on page 5-29. If the vehicle does not have DIC buttons, the vehicle must be in P (Park) to access this display.
- Press and hold the V button on the DIC, or the SET/CLR button on the turn signal lever if the vehicle does not have DIC buttons, for several seconds. The oil life will change to 100%.
- Display OIL LIFE REMAINING on the DIC. If the display shows 100%, the system is reset.
You’ll know it worked: The oil life will change to 100%.
