Does anyone know how I can check when an oil change is due up on the data screen, but on a 07? I've been trying to figure this out for a while, but still nothing, is this even possible..07 without nav..Thanks

 

hahah u need that to tell u ??? come on man :0) keep track on the good old fashioned way...

 

nah don't "need" it, just wondering if I can check..Might as well make use of it after dishing 32k out for a car right? Thats like saying "damn you need power seats, use the old fashion way and move it your self" ahah just messing with ya man.

 

umm.... ok man :0) well good luck

 

On my '07 with nav you cycle through the trip meters and its the next option after fuel economy.. Try hitting Trip if you have it.

 

yeah, I'm still trying to find out how to do this on my non nav..I'm sure someone on here must know..

 

im still amazed that you guys need/use that to tell you when to do an oil change...

I use mobil1 tri synthetic i change every 5-6000 miles according to the dash... I remember seeing a "serive Next" screen on my setup... but never really used it... i like the old way....its right there, i dotn have to scroll through any screens...

 

Not there w/o NAV.

 

oh so you cant check it if you don't have nav? Wow thats wack, the 04-06 non nav had it.

 

very true... i have an 05 non navi ... but lke i said... i found it once and just kinda forgot about it and dont really mind doing hte math in my head hahah

 

They suggest changing oil every 3200 miles right?

 

On the 04-06's, you need to input the interval you want for oil and tires and reset each time. Do the 07's have oil sensors, or you still have to select when you want it done?

 

Yeah, oil every 3k miles or so and tire rotation every other oil change.

 

I just all depends on how u drive... where u drive... what TYPE of driving yuo do... etc... check your oil ... see if its dirty.. or dark.. if it is.. ITS TIME... but usually around 3000k or so... i spend a littl emore money and get synthetic oil... MUCH BETTER... and you dont have to change it as often...

THEY SAY you can go 10k .... but i wouldnt do it personallllllllllllly!

 

I'm not aware of any reminder for oil or tires on the non-navi cars. Would be cool, but I just go by mileage like Fastmax said.. Sorry

 

I use the MAINT button on my SE 05 non-nav.
