Hey, what’s going on, guys! Today, I’m going to show you how to reset the oil life on the Chevy Tahoe. This is going to be on my 2017 Chevy Tahoe with the Duramax engine, but this procedure should be the same for any Tahoe model.

So it’s pretty much the same thing for the other features you have, like an air filter life, brake pad life, and the other stuff like that, but we’re not going to mess with that. It’s only got six thousand miles on it. So let’s check this out!

Then use the information button with the car on it to scroll through until you get to the OIL LIFE percentage

Once that shows you the oil life, use the checkmark button and hold it until it shows a hundred percent

Next, use the little wheel in the middle and scroll up or down until you get to OIL LIFE

Once you’re on oil life, push the middle of the wheel that goes in and says are you sure you want to reset
After that, push to the right for YES and push the middle button and you are done
