What does duree ut huile mean on a dashboard and it says 4 percent what does it mean on a 2002 pontiac aztex

It means you have 4% engine oil life remaining, and that you have your Driver Information Center language set to French.
You need to change, or have changed, your engine oil and filter, and if French is not your language, change the DIC display language to English in the language settings.

Set language for english on dash panel

Should be in your owners manual.
If you don't have the driver info center, you turn the key on and press the odometer and hold, then press it again to change the language.
If you have DIC you use the buttons under the display to change it.
