If I were you I would write Lexus Corp. a letter and let them know how this dealership is treating a returning customer. Won't bode well for the owner of that franchise and I bet it won't happen again.

My dealer told me to come there and pay them $29.95 to reset the warning light that came on my IS-F. Don't need an oil change and they refused to walk me thru the steps over the phone. I bought 3 Lexus's from them and they still didn't care. Then I was told to look it up in the manual under "self help". So much for great customer service. That may change real soon when I'm up for another vehicle. Anyone with a simple solution?
Here is what I did to reset it:
Start the car or do whatever you need to do to put the odometer on "Trip A".
Shut off the car.
Hold down the trip button and push the start button TWICE...WITHOUT your foot on the brake, (we do not want to start the car.) You should see the notice go away and go to a normal reading. Start the car to make sure it is gone. That should do it. Good luck.

Necro thread revival...but I have a question as mine popped on tonight and was solid and couldn't be cleared until I did the reset method. My question is what are the criteria for this light coming on? Is it miles based or time based? I know we don't have any sensor that can tell the quality of the oil so....🤷♂️
