Default oil filter

My nav tell me that i need to change the oil filter. I have about 23000 miles on my car. I just got an oil change last week. How long did it take you guys to need to change your oil filter?

Oil Filter should be changed with every oil change. Not sure if the Z has some special filter or maintenance schedule.

You can do it your self if you have two portable ramps aviable at auto zone or pep, etc.
Problem is on touring you have to take off panel fitted under engine. Has about 12 bolts in it give or take one or two and a center clip. Takes about 30 minutes and is pretty easy after you get the panel off.

I thought he said he just had the oil change done. The light needs to be reset, check your owners manual.

Change your mileage on the NAV feature. I did mine when I changed the oil at 500 miles.

I am not at my car so I forget which buttons to press, bt its def. within the Nav unit that you update. I'll check later today when I get home if you don't figure it out!

press the info button thats where it tells you your maintenance schedule then click on both oil and filter and reset them. You can put what mileage to change the filter and oil. It's quite easy to do
