Hello everyone,
New member here. Does anyone have recommendations in where to take my new to me SRT-6 2005 serviced in the Fort Worth Texas area? It has $37k miles and the dashboard shows some kind of service(s) is due.
Thanks!
Jérôme

Welcome here.....that display indicates the need for an Oil and Filter change
There is a procedure you can then follow to reset that display to read 7000
Then as you drive the car that gauge will calculate when your next service is due again



RESETTING THE FSS MAINTENANCE INDICATOR AFTER AN OIL CHANGE --- (FSS - Flexible Service System)

1. Move the ignition switch to the “RUN” position.
2. Within 4 seconds of moving the ignition switch into the “RUN” position, press the reset button for the trip odometer twice within one second.
....The display for the FSS service request is activated for 10 seconds
3. During the 10 seconds the FSS service request is displayed, move the ignition switch to the “OFF” position. The FSS service request will continue to be displayed.
4. Press the reset button for the trip odometer and hold.
5. Move the ignition switch to the “RUN” position
6. Continue to press and hold the reset button for the trip odometer (about 10 seconds) until the audible signal sounds and the new start distance (7000) appears in the display.
....The tool symbol should disappear at this time.

It is only a accurate as when it was last set. The owner may have changed the oil 1000 miles ago but failed to reset it. It is best to change the oil and filter and reset it .

So true on the reset. I change my oil every year. The reset I only do about every 3 years when it shows up on the dash.
