warning light? lately, my "change oil" light has been coming on every time i start my car, and it stays on for about 2 minutes, and then it goes away. Its a 2001 SS and i've had it for about 2 weeks. It started about 4 days ago. I checked the dipstick and oil looks clean (not dark at all), and is in the "okay" range. Any ideas? Its boggeling my mind and i'm wanting to make sure its nothing serious or something that needs a major fix
