Oil Changes on 04+TL's

If I were to do the oil changes myself, how do I reset the oil on the MID to 100%

from memory...

-goto the 'oil life' on your MID
-hold select button in for 10 seconds (until service message comes up)
-hold select button again for 10 seconds
-it will ask to hit 'ok' or 'cancel' - hit your select button to reset

there's an article around here somewhere that outlines all this in detail, but that's the jist of it...

You pretty much summed it up!

You probably already got it - but I just hit select (the arrows?) until the orange service minder screen is displayed, then hold the reset button for the 10 seconds. Then it will say press it again to reset, or select to cancel.

But I guess this is only if it's giving you the warning. (Not that I don't baby my car, but at $40 an oil change to DYI - I wait until it's time)
