How could a guy have 10,000+ posts and not know how to reset his DIC?

Heck no. I expect good comments like yours. You surprised me, however, because I had only seen your name a few times. I thought to myself that something must really have provoked you. I knew I should have read the manual, but it is in the garage and I am in the house. Just lazy.

What? You haven't noticed the hundreds of times that appeared in various threads?
Being a Mod on another site, I know it may not help, but can't hurt, sucking up.

It's even easier than that. When it gets down to 20%, i just change back to 100% and never have to change my oil.

Alex told me that as long as my DIC reads 40-100%, I have no worries and Alex wouldn't lie about that.......would he?

Of course not. In your case he may make an exception, so be careful

Heh, heh,,, I was lazy. The manual is in the garage and I am warm and cozy here in the living room and I knew some one would answer my question.
but gosh, I got much more than the answer. I read them to Mary and we both got a laugh.

There are actually two ways to reset oil life readout.turn key on (engine off) and press accelerator to floor 3 times in a row, oil gauge DIC readout resets to 100%.

Remember . . . not all vehicles with a DIC have those little buttons on the steering wheel.
