How to check Intelligent Oil Life Monitor

[CFar]

I've got a new '17 ST (SYNC 3) with about 300 miles and can't find the oil life monitor. I've looked through the manual, setting screens and internet but can't find where I can actually check it.

Hoping someone here can enlighten me.

Many thanks,
Chris

I believe it is just a light that comes on at about 10k miles(depending on driving habits). Light looks like a wrench.

If you have an AP, you'll be able to chk it there; otherwise, I believe your stuck with just the wrench light.

Gotcha, thanks guys. Seems silly that if you're caught with your pants down on a long road trip you could potentially go over the limit because you didn't have enough warning.

In any case, thanks.

Try the index in the back of the manual, always good for locating info.......around page 36 in 2016 manual I believe.

Or have any semblance or a regular oil change schedule... I do mine every 10k km, I don't even bother with a sticker because I do it on the 10s. So if I'm headed on a big trip, and I'm at 8k, I do it early. Not rocket surgery.

+1, just make a schedule for it. I do it once a year because I drive it about 5k miles a year.

This. Every 5K for me. Easy enough to do the math. Doesn't have to be EXACTLY on 5k, but that's what I watch for. Next one at 35xxx.

Exactly how I do it. On all my cars.
