New owner, don't have the owner's manual yet.
Today while driving I suddenly noticed when I turned on the car it beeped at me several times. I noticed where it usually has the mileage it had a little wrench and a number and it was flashing then it stopped and went back to the mileage. Also when I accelerated the big triangle lit up in the middle of the odometer for a couple seconds then went away.
Can anyone tell me what all that means?
Thanks.
