Are you getting the change oil flashing up on your odometer (trip counter) and are you getting the (_!_) as well on the dash???

If you have recently changed your oil then just place your key into the ignition and turn to the on position without starting. Press on your gas pedal 3 times (all within ten seconds). Turn Key to the off position and then start your vehicle the change oil flashing on your odometer should turn off.

The TPMS (_!_) light is telling you one or all 5 tires are low in air pressure. Pull out your tire gauge and check your pressures and fill up the tire(s) even check your spare and fill if required. This should trigger off the light. Or you can invest in a SuperChips programmer and go into advanced tune to turn this stupid light off period.

You should put air in your oil and change your tire.

Does anyone no the OEM tire number for replacement.

I like to fill the tires with olive oil, they seem to run smoother and I get better mileage.

might be time to change your blinker fluid as well, if so, you should also do your mirror rotation while you are at it.

My says this as well from time to time. I changed the oil and that message went away, then I corrected the tire pressure and that message went away.

make sure your tires are all the same air pressure and if your change oil light still on reset it.

If the TPMS alert doesn't go away after checking the air pressure of all 4 tires, you might check the air pressure of spare tire My TPMS pressure was set to 37 (stock setting), I lowered it to 26 (the lowest setting of SuperChips Flashpaq)
