Oil change is coming, its warning you that you need an oil change soon, after about 2-500 miles it will be a constant light instead of a blinking light, just do an oil change and your good :) no worries

The computer is set to start the reminder at 4,500 miles (when it starts blinking).
After 5,000 miles, the light stays on.

It wouldn't blink after just 3,000 miles.

To reset, I just...

- Select trip A (pretty sure it's A, not B. Someone correct me if I'm wrong)

- While holding down trip button, turn key to accessory mode (no need to start car)

- Continue to hold as the 6 digits clear. Done!
