I'm new to the TL family so I have a couple of questions.
Is there some reason why I need to take my TL to the Acura dealership for an oil change? And if I don't, how do I reset that "Oil Life" setting? I remember an old Accord I had, you just used your key (or something of simliar size) to reset the green light. It would turn yellow and then red when service was needed.

we should keep a list of those acura shops that raped its customers.
hope that will keep those guys honest. do they expect return customers? and how does Acura feel about its authorized shops from raping its customers. or do they stand behind customers beware bs?

The only reason I didn't was because I don't have a garage and it was 20 degrees outside.
Here are Ron A's instructions on resetting the MID display

(The procedure on page 196 (of the 2004 owner's manual, and probably for later models also but if anyone has a later model with the correct procedure please let me know) of the manual is incorrect. In paragraph 3a of the manual, the requirement to hold the button for 10 seconds the second time it is pressed is omitted. If this is not done, the display will not reset.)
1. Turn the ignition switch to ON
2. Select Trip A or Trip B (You can use either one, so if you are using one to record data for something, use the other one to reset the Oil Life Indicator).
3. Press the < or > button repeatedly until the oil life is displayed.
4. Press and hold the Select/Reset button for 10 seconds. The Multi-Information Display will ask for a confirmation.
This will explain what happens to the other services items when you reset the MID before the service due message appears.
From the service manual, page 3-6: (NOTE: This information is not in the owners manual.
NOTE: If you are resetting the display when the oil life is more than 15%, the maintenance message "Service Due Soon" will be displayed. Make sure the maintenance items requiring service have been performed before resetting the display.
So this means if you change your oil before the 15% Service Due Soon is displayed, and you go to reset the display, if there are other items to be serviced, they will show up on the display, and if you clear the display the MID will take this to mean that you performed the required service.
To clear the display:
After you get that service screen hold the reset/select for another 10seconds.
It will then ask you a question. I don't remember exactly, bus something about do you want to reset.
Press the reset/select button and the MID will be reset
The above information may not be exact because I did it a while back and forget exactly what I did, but the next time I will write it down and update this if necessary.
The statement from the service manual is a little vague, and I think they meant to say that if other items require service, the message "Service Due Soon" will be displayed, since if there is nothing else requiring service there would be no need for the message.
