1. My "Main't Req" (Maintenance Required) light blinks / is constantly on?
Push the trip odometer reset, turn the key until the dash lights all come on (don't start it)
Hold it until the Maint Reqd. Light shuts off.
Turn the key off and take your finger off the button.

That means its time for an oil change. :) i know i reset these lights all day long.

tee hee hee...old news
all ya had to do was ask :D

the dash lights should also blink a few times to let ya know it's been reset.. you'll hear a click-click-click (well, i did anyway..)

thats when you use your keyless entry. :p

does that light take into account weither your using synthetic oil??

nope its only a mileage counter. starts to blink at around 6000km then is on constantly at around 8000km. until you reset it.

well good thing my light doesn't come on then :p

your car is to old for that light :P

my cars still faster :p


my airbag light never even came on like its supposed to after 10 years or whenever it is

yes i know it meant that...i got my oil changed today...and i talked to my friend there and he said that they reset the light after they change the oil....

MARTY--> guess what? while at the dealer today i got them to check some weird noises...Yah apparently the problem is with my front struts or something lol...$500 problem...thank god for warranty...it gets fixed on tuesday

air conditioner compressor
air conditioner belt
