Is is check engine or maintenance required? For the mainenance, you hold the two buttons to the right of your gauges and turn the key to the on position, keep holding for like 10 seconds and it resets.

Exactly...Just reset it because who ever changed your oil last time never did...

Well it does it in intervals.
At first it does that (flashes a few times, turns off) as a friendly reminder and then if more time lapses...
It will flash more and then just stay on until it's reset...basically as a constant reminder to change your oil.

As soon as youre 250 miles past the reccomended change interval, it will turn to solid.
