How do I reset the maintenance required light? I don't want the dealers help every time I change the oil.

I bet this has been answered here already. If the search function returned something other than a blank page I would probably have the answer already. Gotta love computers.

With the ignition off, hold down (push in) the trip reset button. Continue to hold it in as you start the car. I hold it in for about 10 seconds. I believe there is a page in the manual that describes it - probably better than my description above... but if you do it this way, the maintenance required light should reset.

Thanks!

Here's how to get around having to do it at all.

Fill the filter up with oil before you screw it on. I have yet to try it, I'm due in about 1000 miles, but the dealer told me that was the trick.
