When I turn on my TL-S, the Maintenance light flashes for 5-10 seconds and then goes away. I don't remember seeing it flash for such long time before, or am I imagining things?

Also my tranny #2 is starting to be funny again, after ~500 miles.

Stuttered again, really hard while I was cruising at 50mph. Occasionally produces rough shifts when uncalled for.

 

Maintenace Require indicator is just reminder for your next service.

Simply, press & hold both SELECT & RESET button and put the key an ingnition and wait till the light goes off.

Owners manuel.

 

Its most likely time for the oil to be changed or it was not reset at the last change. The 5 to 10 seconds flash is normal when the service mileage interval is reached.

 

i held the buttons down for 10 seconds with the car running...seems to allow you to adjust the outside temp gauge by 3 degrees up or down... may be in the manual, don't know.

 

Its in the manual, I think the key had to be in position II and you had to hold both buttons before turning the key to that position.... anyway its in the manual.

 

Please remember that you have to press & hold 2 buttons BEFORE you put the key in ignition. If you press & hold the buttons AFTER ignition, it will go to temperature setting.

PRESS & HOLD THE BUTTONS BEFORE PUT THE KEY AN IGNITION!!!
