How do you reset the oil life on a 2005 Chevy Colorado?

The 2005 Chevy Colorado doesn't have a traditional "oil life monitor" like some newer vehicles. It relies on the owner to track oil changes based on mileage or time. There's no button or procedure to reset an oil life percentage.

Instead, you should:

* Check your owner's manual: This will specify the recommended oil change interval for your specific engine (mileage and/or time).

* Change your oil: Once the recommended interval is reached, change your oil and oil filter.

There's nothing to reset. Simply keeping track of your mileage and changing the oil according to the manufacturer's recommendation is the correct procedure.
