to reset the light hold the trip set in for like 15 seconds or so and it will go out. The car does not know when it gets an oil change but the computer monitors your driving and your driving conditions and will pop the light when it feels you need to change the oil.

some cars you just tap the gas 3 times with engine off, key on, and it will reset
