2004 Cadillac XLR: Resetting the Engine Oil Life Monitor

Below is the procedure for resetting the engine oil life monitor on the 2004 Cadillac XLR:

1. Press the up or down arrow to scroll the DIC to show OIL LIFE.

2. Once the XXX% ENGINE OIL LIFE menu item is highlighted, press and hold the RESET button until the percentage shows 100%. Repeat the steps if the percentage does not return to 100.
