I just got mine done last week and I asked to make sure they reset that thing! Also, mine came on about 200 miles before 5000!! It scared me so I took it in and got it serviced and the tires rotated! :)

Resetting the Maintenance Required Light

I bought my Yaris in December and have 12,000 miles on it already. I just changed the oil at 11,000 and the light started coming on and now is on all the time.

Is that happening so they can change my oil for $30 a crack?

Does any one happen to know if this erases the mileage on Trip A when this is done? I'm just curious because I always track my my miles per tank on the trip meter and am afraid I'll lose the info. I should probably get in the habit of logging it elsewhere anyway just in case.

TIA

It was quicker thhan i thought. Oh yeah i had to do that since i can save more money getting the oil from my brothers store (advance auto) and get his discount to get castrol syntec 5w30 rather than paying 40 bucks to Toyota dealer umph!

This should be the real sticky...

Is there a way to change the interval at which the light comes on at? Just hit 5000 in my car yesterday. Once I switch to synthetic, I was gonna also switch the interval to 7500 miles instead of every 5000. Having to constantly reset that light is going to become annoying! Or what about disabling the light? I know how to track my maintenances anyway (always have).

1. Theres is no way to change the 5000 mile mark. 2. You could pull your gauges and cut the power to the light. 3. Have a Yaris imported from a non-US market.

Every 5000 miles is "constantly"? I wouldn't be annoyed by that, but to each his own.

When I drive as much as I do (I hit 5000 in less than 2 months easily) it does seem like constantly. More to the point is the resetting when it is inconsistent with when the maintenance actually occurs.

Yeah, that kind of sucks. But it's only like a 3 minute fix at the most. You spent that much time asking if you could change the interval.

Just saying
