I'm not really interested in paying a dealer to tell me I need an oil change. However, I'm not sure that’s what the car is telling me. When I start it up I get 1 wrench, something that looks like a clock to the left of the wrench and the number 27 to the right of the wrench. I checked the maintenance schedule book and it indicates that 1 wrench is routine service. Can anyone tell me what code the # 27 is? Does this mean I'm 27 days out from needing an oil change?

Please pardon my ignorance as I've only had mine a little more than 1 month. Any help is greatly appreciated.

 

You are correct (mostly). It's telling you that you you are 27 days out from needing a Service "A". Look in you owner's manual and you will find a chapter entitled "Flexible Service System" or FSS. That will tell you everything you need to know. Alternatively, use the "search" feature on the menu bar and look fro FSS. It has been discussed may times before.
