Main't Required Blinks
my maintenance required light blinks for about 5 seconds when I first start the car. Why is that?? I have 43k miles on the car? am I due for a 45k service?

It begins to blink at 6k if I remember correctly and stays on when it hits 7500miles, the recommendation within the manual to change the oil.
If you do read the manual (hooked on phonics works great) it will tell you how to reset it.

Yeah, it's due for service within the next 2K miles. The light will blink faster and faster as you approach the service interval.
