I know when you start your car up the OIL OK thing comes up and goes off after 1/2 seconds. but latly when i start the car it comes on and stays on for 5 minutes and when it eventually does come off it resets my mileage count everytime. Any one else's doing this? Any reason why as it's annoying.

A lot of people on here will be biased but before i bought my 172 it was either that or a 206gti 180. I've seen a few around latly and i have a soft spot for them but try and make myself feel better in thinking my clio is better in handling and a bit quicker. is this true lol? Would 172 pahse...
