pcr is quite correct - its just a 'clearing of the error message'
As I understand it - there is a bug with the way in which the oil level is measured. This can occasionally cause it to give an 'out of range ' reading which is logged as an error that has to be cleared by the dealer.
When it happens, it is wise to check the oil, but if the oil IS low - you should have had a low oil warning - which automatically clears when you top up the oil. This is a different warning.
I'm told by my dealer that Honda UK are aware of the problem - and there is a software patch being worked on. I have repeatedly been told this, but regretably its not yet available - which is VERY POOR, since I have had this problem since well before Christmas.
When the dealer clears the message, it will remain clear for days, weeks, or even months until the next 'out of range' reading - when it will again stay until cleared by the dealer. Mine has sometimes been alright for months, other times, the message has returned the same day!
I am glad your dealer (like mine) is helpful, but the dealers are being badly let down by Honda UK who are supposed to be doing the permanent corrective software patch. Please encourage your dealer to inform Honda UK that there is yet another unhappy customer waiting for this to be properly fixed (though unhappy customers seem to bother Honda UK not one jot)
