My maintenance required light has been flashing and is now on solid. According to the manual this is some sort of mileage timer that's supposed to remind me to have scheduled maintenance performed. Any idea what maintenance this refers to, or is it simply an 8k timer to remind me of whatever maintenance is due at that time according to the schedule? Seems sort of useless to me. Nothing like an idiot light trying to tell me there's something seriously wrong with my car when it's just a silly timer.
