You should check to make sure they reset the oil life sensor when they changed the oil.

For no reason the spanner indicator come on on the dash board does that mean that the speed also go down so you can not speed up

Yes, the yellow car with a spanner - does NOT mean that a service is due soon. It means that there is a possible fault with the engine electronic management system. The car needs to have the fault codes read via the OBD socket. http://www.diagnostic-world.com/pages/meriva_a_dash_lights_203035.cfm.

I have a light on my dash board showing it looks like a engine can someone help me plz

Hi Barbara:
That will be a "service engine soon" message.
If it is continually flashing it means it is urgent.
Often it will mean that the engine sensors are trying to tell you that the information they are getting is outside the "normal" range.
A mechanic can retrieve codes that tell what is wrong.
Depending on the age of the vehicle, it is not uncommon for a sensor to need replacement.
Hopes this helps.
Cheers.

While driving tonight a wrench is showing on my dash. Could you tell me what this means? Thank you

Yes it is a "service soon" light. It means something is wrong or up. You should have it checked at the dealer or an auto repair shop. :-) If the mileage is around 50,000 or 100,000 miles, the service light will likely come on. I think all cars do this. I think the dealers or the auto repair place can turn it off.

Service code B3 shows on dashboard, what does this mean?

Honda has different service package reminders programmed in the computer. Contact your local dealer or your owners manual. B3 will be an oil change and probably some other fluid checks or changes.

Service soon engine light is on and it wont go off.

Did you have the computer checked to see what code or codes come up? If not and you have an Advanced Auto store near by they check computer codes for free. They hook up their code reader and it shows the code or codes and lists what the code means.
