    Micro filter change and service reset

    Just had the oil changed on my 05 645 ci and I bought aftermarket micro filters and the jerks at the dealership wouldn't reset the engine service for it does anyone know how to do it? Would appreciate any advice.

    Here is how to remove the microfilter cover, taken from my brake pad DIY:



    You do not need to lift the gasket as mentioned if you are just changing the microfilter.

    Here are my instructions on resetting the 7 "check control" service indicators.

    Perfect! And the Reset page has been bookmarked. It's easier to do it this way than through INPA.

    Don't forget the water drains while you are in there - much more important!:

    Yeah, they were fine. The only time this Princess ever gets wet is when it gets washed, she never sees the rain, in fact, I'm not even really sure the auto-wipers work.
