I already know about the maint reqired light for the s2000 and how to reset it, but a friend of mine has an integra type-r and asked me if I knew how to reset the light in his car. does anyone know how to reset it on his car?

If you had read the owners manual more carefully, or the FAQ in this forum, or the many, many other threads on this subject that supposedly you claim to have searched for, you would have found that at a certain number of miles the light flashes. After that it flashes every time you start the car. After some more miles it comes on continuously and stays on.

the light flashes as a "reminder" that you have an oil change due soon. as it gets closer to the mileage interval, eventually the light will come on and stay on.

the owner's manual says exactly this.

Thanks. I did browse through the manual when I first got it, but didn't remember seeing anything about it flashing first. My bad for posting, I guess I should've put my suit on.

And thanks for actually giving me an answer, so I didn't have to wait until after work to look at the manual.

not everyone gets an owner manual when you buy a car used but thanks for wasting time typing that mxt77 it was helpful

Are you saying that your friend doesn't have an owner's manual, or are you just trying to cover his (and your own) laziness with that generic statement?

BTW... to add something useful... if your friend did, in fact, buy his car used and it didn't include an Owner's Manual, he should be able to purchase one from Helm Inc:

Feel free to kick him in the nuts anyway, though.

I understand what your saying, but what's the purpose of these forums, to get a quick answer and some useful help from someone or to get a wiseass response that could have took just as much time as a helpful response. Why type anything if it isn't going to help???????? All of you and your boyfriend's (mikegarrison) post are about nothing. You saw the topic question why did you even click on it if you didn't want to help this guy out?
