I just changed my oil on my 2003 325xi, and went to rest my oil service mileage on the dash. I have been following the procedure that is posted many places. I get the reset to come on, get the flashing reset, and even get the "end" when I hit it the button the third time, but the mileage does not reset. It still shows that I have 1300 miles before the next oil change. Any ideas?

Doesn't matter if hood or doors are open. I reset my 330ci with the hood and drivers door open. Try this method 1) Hold down left odometer reset button 2) Turn ket to Position #1 - First thing that displayed was TEST 3) Wait about 5 seconds until the Oil Service or Inspection with Reset or RE came on 4) As soon as the Oil Service with Reset light came on - I let go of the button and pressed it again - holding the button again 5) As soon as the Oil Service with Reset light started to Flash - I let go of the buttone and pressed it again - but do not hold it down this time - just press it and let go (This is where everyone is having problems). 6) I waited a few seconds and then the word Inspection came on since before it was saying Oil Service. 7) Then the word END came and that's it. My car didn't reset either with the online directions either. This method is slightly different, worked for me.

I have a problem with resetting the oil service light, the problem im facing is 1. I push down left odometer button(hard) 2. Turn key to position 1 very carefully 3. "test" displays alternating with total milage(default screen), This is where im stuck, i wont get the oil service or inspection as some says i should. If i release on "test" I end up in the cluster test phase, and if i release on total milage then nothing happends and i end up at the total milage default screen. Send help!
