I don't know about your light, but you should probably be using the recommended 5w30 instead of 10w40.

This light comes on no matter what at every 5k (blinking) and stays on at 7500. Just a reminder to change the oil. If this is not the case, then have the dealer check it out.

Resetting the light is in your manual under engine oil replacement reminder light.

Turn the key off.

Turn the key on while holding the trip meter reset button. Hold it down until the light goes out. It will stay on for three seconds, blink for two, stay on for one and stop.
