When you reset the monitor, write down the mileage. Then when the SID first shows the wrench (10% oil life remains) record that mileage. Take the difference in miles, divide by .9, that will give you the 100% oil life as calculated by the SID. Because you ignore the oil life computer when determining your change interval, this procedure will not coincide with the mileage intervals of when you are actually are changing the oil.
If you hit the one year mark since the last reset the oil life computer, the wrench may appear before you depleted 90% of the oil life. You will have to scroll through the SID menus to find the actual oil life percentage and adjust the .9 factor in the calculation accordingly.
