So I recently bought a brand new 2012 evo. It has 2712 miles on it currently and I've already changed the engine oil and oil filter with Mobil 1 oil and oem oil filter at 1871 miles. So today when I turned on my car this message popped up " routine maintenance required". I'm still new to the evo scene so I'm just wondering why this popped up.

 

Try resetting the maintenance reminder by holding down the info button until it beeps. I forget exactly how it's done, but you should be able to search for it

If it comes back, then something else is up. They probably just forgot to reset the reminder.

 

key in off position click and hold button when the screen is on the wrench screen it will flash click again it will say clear? then click and hold the button.....i just did it today

 

Is this anywhere in a sticky? I just so happened to need this today.

Thanks Tubzzz14!

 

I don't think so but no problem

 

I just tried what you guys suggested but i dont see that clear after holding the info button

 

make sure that the key is in the off position

 

yeah i did that, hrmm, ill try again tomorrow

 

You don't say whether or not you have nav. If you do all the service reminders and records are kept in the nav system. Reset the reminder in you nav system. If you can't figure it out I can describe it once I get my car back from the body shop.

 

If you stop by the Mitsu dealer they can turn off the Maint. reminders for good. MPG

 

Just open up the owners manual. It explains everything step by step.

 

Oh sorry but i dont have the navi, but ill try again

 

the service reminder is based on miles on the vehicle, regardless if you did the service or not.

 

This definitely works...thank you!
