After an oil change or service on your Subaru XV (2017–2022) — the GT — you can clear the maintenance reminder yourself through the instrument-cluster INFO menu. No diagnostic tool needed.
Before You Start
Only reset after the service is done. You’ll use the ‘INFO’ and scroll/SET buttons on the steering wheel.
Resetting the Maintenance Reminder
- Switch the ignition on (engine off).
- Press ‘INFO’ repeatedly until the display prompts ‘Push and hold the INFO button for selection screen’, then hold ‘INFO’.
- Scroll to ‘MAINTENANCE’ and press ‘SET’.
- Select ‘Maintenance schedule’, then clear / set the next interval and confirm — the reminder is reset.
If the Reminder Won’t Clear
- Stay in ignition-on, engine off.
- Hold INFO at the prompt to reach the selection screen.
- Confirm the clear/interval when asked.
- A separate warning light? A fault stores a code — look it up on autodtcs.com.
