STOP DRIVING IMMEDIATELY!






just kidding, it's the change the oil notification light, annoying isn't it? the owner's manual has the procedure for shutting it off, or search around here somewhere, i wrote up a shutoff thing that was at one time stickied in the introduction section but has since been removed.

my first experience with the light...

https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showt...&#entry16391754



here's a post:

"yeah, startup that's the change your oil light. don't know if you were mislead but the 6k is mileage since not rpm. it's either hold the trip or sel button at startup until the light goes away. sadly i just did it last week and i've already forgotten how to do it, no wonder people ask so much here..."

the oil warning light is an oil pressure light, if you get that light, stop immediately and have the car towed, it's not an oil level light, i'm a noob, but i know when not to drive the car anymore...lol.

if you get this one=bad
