Why does the car still show a maintenance reminder after servicing?
1 Answers
This is caused by the maintenance reminder not being reset after the last service. Some cars allow manual reset of the oil life, while others require a computer to perform the reset. Additional information: 1. Maintenance reminder styles: Some cars display a wrench symbol, while others use Chinese characters directly. 2. Oil life calculation methods: Some cars can be set to remind maintenance after a certain mileage, based on the distance traveled. Others cannot set the mileage and simply require pressing the oil reset button to restore the life to 100%. 3. Reminder timing: The computer automatically calculates the oil life based on factors such as driving mileage, driving conditions, and engine operation time. Generally, a reminder is triggered when the oil life falls below 10%. It doesn't necessarily remind you to service after 5000 kilometers; with good road conditions, it might only remind you after 8000 kilometers.
