Anyone know if there is a way to turn off the MAINT REQ'D light that comes on at 10000. I change my own oil (Mobil 1 Synthetic 5000/10000), not sure there is any reason to bring my E in to the dealer although I may for several of the recalls. In the mean time it would be nice to shut off the light.

You've been around too long not to know the answer to this question :evil: I will give you two hints, LOOK IN YOUR OWNERS MANUAL! or DO A SEARCH! (subject covered ~20 times in recent memory, ok maybe not that many times) :oops: :P

Cut a corner of the cover from your owner's manual and tape it over the light. :lol: Might as well make SOME use of it. 8)

uh, just because it came on after 10k, doesn't mean that there is nothing wrong with your vehicle :?

You have to drive your car backwards for the next 10,000 miles. Recalls? What recalls?
