When your Service Interval Lights get to yellow or, further as in red, the 'puter is
suggesting you need an oil change. Some people do it before yellow...up to you.

If you car is still under warranty/maintenance the dlr should do an oil & filter free,
under that program...if warr/maint has expired, it is on your nickel. An "oil service"
is an oil & filter and a cabin air intake filter. Up to the dlr, your mileage, your situ,
which it is at any given time.

If your car is off warranty, I would skip the dlr, hit a good local Independent and
get oil & filter, and cabin filter, (if you want). Any good Indie can re-set your
lights. Long answer...hope it is clearer to you.
