Is this what they do when they change the oil and reset it?

I couldn't tell you, but I would expect most techs do not rely on it. If they weren't the last person to work on the car, how do they know when it was last set or when the last oil change was?

I reset it myself each time I change the oil, but it resets whenever I disconnect the battery to work on the car. However, you can set it to zero to turn it off completely.

Okay thanks! Am I wrong or are you in the Marines? I thought you posted something about that once before...

Not sure what you mean here... the options I have for setting a mileage reminder are Tire, Oil, Filter, and Other. If you are referring to the trip odometers, that is pretty standard. I reset Trip A every time I fill up. I use Trip B for trips longer than a full tank, which is particularly useful when billing mileage for work travel.
