Davidoo Posted 7 hours ago Report Share Posted 7 hours ago I couldn't find a specific topic for this, so I posted it here since I have an ST. I neglected to note the last time I changed the oil. Out of character for me. Of course, I know the oil life monitor will tell me, but I live in Phoenix with intense heat and often change it earlier. Will Forscan show the date the oil life monitor was reset? I don't see that available on the in-dash screen. I use Amsoil and had ordered enough for several oil changes a while ago, so I don't know when I did it last. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I relied on the oil life monitor I'd be changing the oil at around 10K miles, which is twice the mileage I change it at using good brand full synthetic. If I were you I'd change the oil when the oil life monitor is around 50%. Water under the bride but I take the attached photos at each oil change to keep with my Xcel spreadsheet. I don't know, but doubt that Forscan would have that history. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wubster100 Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago I don’t think there is a way, but if there is one, then it would most likely be in the live data section. My oil life is at 14% and it has been 6,599 miles since the last oil change. As @1004ron said, it’s probably best to wait until about 50% oil life.
