Camry 2012+ :: 2014.5 SE - Maintenance Required Light Come On At 10,000 Miles?

Set up the free oil change for next week (10,600 on the odometer) and was wondering if this is an automatic light just based on mileage. Prior owner got a free 5,000 mile oil change and selling dealer changed the oil at 5,800 when we bought it.

But I guess if there's a reset somewhere that neither prior dealer took the time to do the car thinks it's time for it's first change. This is a 2014.5 SE Sport put in service July of 2014.

Prius V :: 2013 - Maintenance Required Light Flashing At 4600 Miles?

My bride's 2013 v5 is flashing "Maintenance Required" at a little over 4600 miles. Way too early for the recommended 10K oil change (though we will probably do the first change at 5K)...

Prius (2010-12) :: Oil Maintenance Required Notification After Only 5K Miles?

I have a 2010 Prius that I bought used this past Fall (2013). I have only had the oil changed once and it was at the local Toyota dealer. The service adviser told me the interval was 10k miles however, the "Oil Maintenance Required" notification is flashing on my dash at only 5k miles since the last change.

Is this a standard preset notification that trips automatically at 5k miles or does the computer measure the quality of the oil and it is telling me that the oil is shot and I need to change it now?!?

Honda - Accord :: 2002 SE - Maintenance Required Light Start Flashing

I have a 2002 Honda accord SE. It has about 194,850ish miles on her. The maintenance required light starts to flash when I turn on the car and then the light stops flashing after a bit. What it means?

I checked for any codes and there's nothing. My oil is a bit low, but not at the marker. My next due for an oil change says 195,300ish. I've never seen it flash before.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2000 - Just Rolled 180,000 Miles - Maintenance Required?

Just hit 180k in my 2000 V10, 2wd last week. That means that within the next 1-2 years, I'll be hitting 200k. I have heard that some bigger maintenance may be required around then, like a transmission rebuild. Some posts I've read say that it's fairly unpredictable and pretty dependent on regular maintenance over the life of the truck.

I've only had the truck for a year, and supposedly the previous owner kept up with regular maintenance. I've done a lot of work on the suspension: coils, shocks, ball joints (twice), tie rods, and brakes/rotors. Is there anything that commonly needs replaced on the engine, or axles, etc.? Just trying to look toward the future so I can get as many miles out of my truck as possible.

Camry :: 2009 - Maintenance Required Light Blinking

I have an 09 Camry LE with about 59k miles on it and I just noticed today that When I turn my car on the maintenance required light blinks. But as soon as I put the car in drive it goes away, and does not return when I put it in park again.

I know all of your dash lights should come on at start up to show you that they work. But they all go off and that one remains flashing. I never looked at it before to know whether or not it's always been that way. Also when I first turn on my car, it idles at about 1.5k-2k rpm's. But if I keep my foot on the break and put it in drive then park again it sits at 1k or below. Is this normal? If not what should I be checking out?

Camry :: 2010 - Maintenance Required Light Blinking When Key Turned To Power On

Ok, my final question about my 2010 Camry I bought. It is certified preowned which means everything has been inspected and maintained. So I was surprised to see my maint. req light blinking. They didn't change the oil?

However, I noticed it is only coming on and blinking when I have the key turned to power on, but not when the engine is cranked. Is this just a normal light display? I'm definitely calling the dealer if the oil needs changed already.

Camry :: 2005 - Maintenance Required Light Takes A Long Time To Go Off

On our 2005 Toyota Camry, we have recently noticed that the maintenance-required light takes a long time to go off when the ignition is cycled. This is true whether the engine is started immediately or the key is simply left in the ON position until proveout is completed.

The car is up to date on all services and we see no other signs of an impending problem. At the moment we do not have the ability to retrieve OBD-II diagnostic codes. What could be going on?

After starting my 09 Camry, the Maintenance light flashes a good 15 times before it turns off. I just started noticing this. I understand all the lights on the dash will flash upon starting the car, a few times, but this is longer than it has done it in the past.

Camry :: 2011 LE - Maintenance Light Flashes 30 Sec Later When Car Started

2011 Camry LE .... My car has some 85,000 miles and generally runs very good. Recently the maintenance light flashes. The flashing does not occur when the car is started but some times 30 sec later.

If it were the standard "change your oil" reminder, it would come on and stay on--I'm very familiar with that.

This situation it comes on after the car is running (even driving) and flashes for 5-10 times and disappears.
