oil life question
quick question, when i got the oil changed on my gfs car the oil life said that it was still at 40%. i checked the oil and its still full but now it says that the oil life is <15%. is the oil life reset separately or did they just not change the oil or is it a whole other problem that im not seeing?

It depends on how long/how many miles/how driven since the oil was changed, but I would suspect that they changed the oil but did not reset the mid. Go to the 3G garage to learn how to reset the mid.

Here’s the full procedure to reset the MID display.
(The procedure on page 196 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.
a. If you are sure you want to reset the display, press the Select/Reset button for 10 seconds again. (This is the part omitted from the manual.)
b. If you do not want to reset the display, press the < or > button to select “Cancel”
