did you overfill the engine? check the levels - if normal then do an OBD2 code reader scan to see if there's a code that can be cleared.

I've drained the engine oil and the performance is better but that massage is still there, I've tried to reset but it still keep coming back.

It might take it a while (days) to reset itself. Also, I've read that if the oil is at the "high line" on the dipstick, it might actually trigger the 019 (high oil level) code.

Also, make sure that the car is sitting level when testing the oil level, and maybe drain a little extra to bring it 1/3 of the way below the "high line" to the "add line" on the dipstick.

And be patient... ;-)
