Last updated:
When the spanner or an oil-maintenance message appears on your Mazda 3 Mk4 (BP, 2019–present), the oil-service counter has run out. Mazda puts the reset inside the central display (the rotary-controlled screen), so you can clear it yourself in a few taps once the oil and filter are done.
Reset After the Oil Change Only
The counter just tracks distance and time since the last reset — it doesn’t sense the oil. Clear it only once fresh oil and a new filter are fitted.
How to Reset the Mazda 3 Mk4 Oil Service
- Turn the ignition on (engine off).
- Using the central display / Commander control, select ‘Information’.
- Select ‘Vehicle status’.
- Select ‘Maintenance’.
- Select ‘Reset oil change interval’ and confirm — the oil service is reset.
If the Reminder Returns
- It comes back at start-up — the reset wasn’t confirmed; repeat to the ‘Reset’ step.
- A different warning is on — that’s a fault, not the service timer, and won’t clear this way.
