How to Reset the Oil Life on a Buick Envision

Steps from the 2026 Buick Envision owner's manual.

Place the vehicle in P (Park).
On the infotainment home screen, select Vehicle Status > Maintenance > Oil Life > Reset.
Follow the menu and select Reset on the display screen.
Select Reset again to confirm.
Check that the oil life percentage changes to 100%.

Reset the system every time the engine oil is changed; it will not reset itself.
If CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON returns at startup or oil life is near 0%, the reset failed, so repeat the procedure.
