performance braking system. This
brake system is designed for
superior fade resistance and
consistent operation using high
performance brake pads. Brake
squeal is normal and does not affect
system performance.
Tire Chatter/Hop
When driving at slow speeds and in
very tight turns, the vehicle may
have tire chatter/hop. This condition
is normal and the vehicle does not
require service.
Road Imperfections/Crown Effects
The vehicle's precise steering and
handling make it very responsive to
road surface feedback. A slight pull
may be felt in the steering
depending on the crown of the road
and/or other road surface variations
such as troughs or ruts. This is
normal and the vehicle does not
require service.
Engine Oil Life System
The engine oil life system calculates
engine oil life based on vehicle use
and displays a CHANGE ENGINE
OIL SOON DIC message when it is
necessary to change the engine oil
and filter. The oil life system should
be reset to 100% only following an
oil change.
Resetting the Oil Life System
1. Scroll through the DIC Info
Pages menu until the
REMAINING OIL LIFE
percentage is displayed. See
Driver Information Center (DIC)
on page 5-26.
2. Press and hold the SEL button
on the DIC while the Oil Life
display is active. The oil life will
change to 100%.
See Engine Oil Life System on
page 10-18.
