For those who have "0" on the oil change destination

some of ya'll changed the oil and the dealer reset the oil "DIST" on the screen. well I triped on something today to fix that.

If you hit the maint button wich brings the oil display up and hit the joystick towars the right (for ya'll "0" guys) it will display 2500 miles on the milege dist part. and will go all they way up to 7500 going by 250 increments.

this also works on the tire rotation miles.........

hope this helps you guys in that theory.................

I hit every button and looked at every option the first night I drove the car home. I only went to the manual when I found something I couldn't figure out or that didn't work...

That's the American way. I had so much fun figuring things out. Of course the manual was useless for what I couldn't figure out so I looked to the faithful ORG.

But did you know that if you hold the maint button for a few seconds it will bring back the miles to when you need to change your oil or rotate your tires back to "0". Found out this when I went to Valvoline for the first time to get oil change. Usually go to dealer but they say it would be like 45 min to change the oil. And I thought they have to do something special to get it back to "0".
