According to The Bentley manual, it takes three complete drive cycles to clear the MIL. It takes 40 fault free drive cycles to clear the memory for a non catalyst damaging fault and 80 fault free drive cycles for a catalyst damaging fault. A drive cycle is defined as a cold start and engine oil temp brought up to 160F at least 40F above it's starting temp. I would suggest starting the engine cold, allow it to warm up for a couple minutes then take it for a 20 to 30 min. drive, shut down allow to cool and do again 39 more times. Enjoy the ride!
