I want to change the oil on my vehicle. What type of oil and filter do I need to use? How do I reset the sensor in the message center?

Your vehicle should have a sticker under the hood, and possibly on the oil filler cap that tells you what kind of oil you need.

If this sticker is missing, you can put in 10W-30. Your system requires 4 1/2 quarts. Don't forget to pour some of the oil inside of the filter, and slightly lubricate the rubber gasket on top of the filter before you screw it in.
Also, only tighten the filter finger-tight, or it will be impossible to remove.
