How to Reset the Engine Oil Life System

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Chevrolet Spark. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Reset the system whenever the engine oil is changed so that the system can calculate the next engine oil change.

To reset the system:

  1. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN with the engine off.
  2. Press the DIC menu button on the turn signal lever to scroll through the menu items on the DIC screen.
  3. Press the set button to clear the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message and/or restore the REMAINING OIL LIFE 100% message.
  4. Turn the ignition to LOCK/OFF.

The system is reset when the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message is off and the REMAINING OIL LIFE 100% message is displayed.

If the CHANGE ENGINE OIL message comes back on when the vehicle is started, the engine oil life system has not been reset. Repeat the procedure.
