You can find the oil life monitor reset procedure here

Oil Change Light Reset Pontiac G8 2008 2009 Reset Your Oil Change Light

2 things to try depending on which system you have , While the vehicle is in Park, you need to hold down "info" and the enter (<-) key for a few seconds.. that will bring you into advanced options.. I believe oil reset is the first option that will show up. Just select that and it'll revert back to 100%. If that doesn't work on your car , then do this Most GM cars reset oil life meter by Key ON and depress the gas pedal 3 times in succession

To reset the oil life indicator, press the MODE button until the light next to OIL LIFE is lit. Press and hold RESET for 3 seconds until oil life percentage is 100%.

Turn the key to the "on" position with the engine "off". Then step on the gas pedal to the floor 3 times.

hi, this is for a 2008, hope theyre the same, compliments of wiki..
1) Turn on your ignition key - do not start engine.
2) Go to engine oil life message.
3) Press and hold reset button, then press menu change button. Release both buttons.
4) A message will be displayed "Reset oil message".
5) Press the reset button. A message "acknowledge" is shown.
6) Press the reset button again. Oil life will be 100%.

its in the manuel on how to do it. go by that untill it works or go by firestone they will help for free

Hello. What that means is that only 16% of your car's oil life remains before you should get an oil change. This is a better method of knowing when to change the oil than the old fashioned rule of thumb of merely changing the oil every 3,000 miles.
When you do have the oil changes, the counter can be reset back to 100%. If you have your oil changed at a garage, they will reset the counter for you. otherwise look in the owner manual for the instructions on how to reset the counter. regards, Joe
ps = kindly rate my answer as helpful. thanks.

turn key to on, do not start, press gas peddle to the floor 3 times quickly, should reset then

Hi does your car have a DIC there will be 2 buttons on the left side of the steering wheel spoke if so scroll though the menu once you get to oil life percent push and hold the button with the arrow then it will read oil life 100% ( it takes a bout 3- 5 sec to reset)

If you do not have a DIC then turn the key to on WITHOUT engine running and press the gas peddal to the floor 3 times FAST the oil life light will flash then go out

if you have any problems let me know but that should work

Look in your owners manual. It's really simple using the dashboard display. Good Luck.
