Chevrolet Aveo 2002-2011 Oil Reset Guide

Chevrolet Aveo 2002-2011 Oil Reset Guide

The old Aveo doesn't offer much, and has been replaced by the Sonic. The outgoing car has slow acceleration and gets just 26 mpg overall, which isn't impressive for such a small car. Handling lacks agility, with imprecise steering and lots of body lean. The ride is jittery, and noise is constant. Access is relatively easy, but interior fit and finish is poor and the seats are uncomfortable. The hatchback is versatile, but the sedan has a roomier trunk. ESC and curtain air bags are not available.

How to Reset the Engine Oil Life System 
The Engine Oil Life System calculates when to change your engine oil and filter based on vehicle use. Whenever the oil is changed, reset the system so it can calculate when the next oil change is required. If a situation occurs where the oil is changed prior to a change engine oil light being turned on, reset the system.

 After changing the engine oil, the system must be reset: 

1. With the engine off, turn the ignition key to ON/RUN.

2. Fully press and release the accelerator pedal slowly three times within five seconds.

3. Turn the key to LOCK/OFF, then start the vehicle.

If the change engine oil light comes back on when the vehicle is started, the engine oil life system has not reset. Repeat the reset procedure.
