Been wrenching on my 00 V8 for almost 2 years now. Work out one issue...wife drives it for a few days..another one pops up. Now it has started the intermittent overheating thing. I have thrown time and $$$ at this beast long enough. It is a love/hate relationship that no counselor would take on...

Did an oil change on the "beast" (00 LS V8) and am having problems resetting the it on vehicle check. I was able to reset the air filter with no problems. I get to the oil change warning, hit reset and it goes right to the air filter check...no reset! :mad: Any suggestions? Thank you ahead of time.
