Another C5 oil question
Hi all,
I just changed the oil on my 2000, but the gauge still shows 50% remaining life. The 1990 had a procedure to get rid of the "change oil" light, does the 2000 Vette have a procedure to reset? I used Mobil 1 10-30 (synthetic). I also drove around to see if a sensor has to "pick up" the new oil (but only drove about 5 or so miles total). Empty3 |

Turn the ignition on, but make sure the engine is off. Press the "Trip"
button on the DIC so that it displays "OIL LIFE" percentage. Press and hold the "Reset" button for two seconds.

The owners manual has a section that tells how to reset the oil life function.
