Main Req'd Light?
Recently that light has been staying on for a few seconds after the car has been started. After reading the manual, I found a statement i think on pg 67 that said something about after the 8000 mile service the light will stay on for 2 seconds or something similar. Cant remember exactly.
So since i am pretty sure its normal, what is the purpose of this? has anyone else noticed it?

Are you up to 8000 miles yet? I am at 7150 miles on mine, so I have not reached that plateau yet. If you are at 8000 miles though, then it looks like you need to go in to the dealer for your 8000 mile service.
