So the maint. req. light poped on the other day. Not sure what it was about so i checked the oil and it was a half quart low. Filled that back up thinking that was it. I was wrong. What else do i need to check?

You forgot to reset it. Next time you start the car do this.

1: Turn key to on position(not started yet)
2: Press and hold trip reset button on the cluster.
3: Hold down button and start the car.
4: Continue holding button for an additional 5+ seconds.

the maint req. light should blink or something happens(don't really remember), the light should be off for the next 10k miles.
