Oil change notification still on after full Lexus Service

[Barryan]

Hi - Any advice welcome - don't really know what goes on under the bonnet - so a basic question, any advise please ! Had a full annual service in Lexus dealership, Dublin- 36km/3 year ( 2020 ES) and 1,000km or so later the Oil Change Notification is coming on - but my service detailed report states that oil and filters were changed - So does this indication imply they simply did not reset the notification, or was the oil actually not changed. Thanks

Sounds like they just forgot to reset it. There's lots of methods on t'internet to do it yourself. Give it a shot.

The car doesn't know its had an oil change, my guess is you took car in before the notification flagged up as it would against time/mileage parameters.

The car now thinks it is time for oil change ....take it into dealer its a quick fix to reset, possibly has to be done by the OBD port.

Had this on my IS 300h about 1,000 miles after it's last service - first time it's happened so I think they just forgot to reset it. It was possible to do the reset through the settings menu on the instrument cluster so may be the same on your ES.

I was very surprised when it came up on my 55 plate LS430 !

Thanks All - as per your advice - I have reset it now through the Vehicle Settings menu on the dash - Simple ( when I now know how !)  Thanks Again

No doubt it was just a reset issue but just as a double check the oil would look very pale yellow if just changed.

I doubt a main dealer would try a scam, but it's just possible there was a mix up in who was assigned to which jobs on the day etc.
