Default check oil.
When I start my car up, where the odometer usually is - the words "check oil" flash in its place.

weird thing is, I just changed my oil today... and it still does it. what gives???

Usually the oil light only comes on when it's about half full. So about 3 litres of oil in there. Did the light come on before you changed the oil? or only after it's been changed?

I figured it out, it said service oil not check oil. I stopped being lazy and read the manual

appartently I had to clear it using a series of button pushes
