Hello everyone,
My remaining oil life showed 22% (I have plenty of time till my services) and I've decided to add some oil.
I bought the right one and added about a liter of oil.
I thought that the percentage would change upwards, but it didn't. So I tried resting it. Now it shows a 100% but the MIL light is on.
I read a bit online and found out that in order to really reset it, you must press the brake pedal.
Manual Oil Life System Reset
1. Turn on ignition.
2. Push Menu button on the turn signal switch.
3. Use adjustment wheel and select menu â Vehicle Information System.
4. Use adjustment wheel and select menu â Oil Life System
5. Push SET/CLR button on the turn signal switch and push brake pedal at same time.

But it didn't work!
Do I really have to go to the dealer in order to reset it?
Can't I just add oil on my own sometimes...
Appreciate your help,
Dima.
