Re: How do you reset OIL LIFE REMAINING ? (Old Rotor Head)
The easy way not mentioned in the owners manual is to push the gas pedal to the floor twice with the ignition switch on but engine off. 
Are you serious?

Re: How do you reset OIL LIFE REMAINING ? (Blkout)
ive never heard of that
unless its a joke telling you the answer to do it is found in your owners manual which it is =) you need to go through a list of options and button pushing. I dont know off the top of my head with out reading the user manual again =)

All of the above work, I use the press and hold reset. Of course reading the owners manual works too...

Actually, I think it pops the hatch. I don't know because I don't ever put the key in the door, one thing that bothers me is a scratched up keyhole on a car.

Check the owners manual. It has instructions in there. Very easy to do.
