I know that the oil change message that shows up on the drivers information panel is based on a lot of variable data, such as time since last reset, engine temperatures, rpm's, miles driven at sustained speeds, etc, etc. But I was wondering at what miles people generally see the change oil message? I have a 2006 Chevy 4x4 with the 5.3 liter aluminum motor. I changed the oil and filter initially at 2,500 miles and at that time reset the oil change message, it was not on at that time. I now have around 5,500 miles and was just curious as to when it may come on. This is my first vehicle with the feature so I'm just a little curious about it and don't want to put to much faith in it just yet. I may just stick to every 3,000 miles like I have in the past.
Thanks, Brian
