Flashing Maint Req Light
I have only 6800 miles on my CL-S and the "Maint Req" light is now flashing for about 10 sec after startup (it goes out after the 10 sec). Is this warning me that I am getting close to 7500 miles? Or, should it not be doing that at all?
Thanks

That is completely normal.
It will flash like that until 7500 while at which point it will go solid.
The dealer will reset it when you bring er in for maintenence.

Hey mikeN, it just started doing the same for me at that exact mileage on my car... well i read in the previous posts that to get rid of the flashing maintenace light do this: before starting the car hold down the select and reset button at the same time for 10 sec. while held down turn the ignition key to start the car, holding the buttons down for another 10 sec... that should do it
oh by the way, where u at the boston market parking lot off of mcarthur? it had goodson plates so i wasn't sure if it was u. it had tint and a spoiler
