I have an e63 2004 and I reset the warning service for the oil change. All worked well. On cycling through the menu I thought id also reset the brake pad as these were changed not long ago. Now i get a warning when i turn the car on that the pads were due 9k miles ago and i cant seem to clear this one. Any ideas?
thanks

You can't reset via the cluster with a used sensor. You can change the sensor then it can be reset.

Do you mean the warning light or the 'time remaining' on the idrive?

The latter can be done, search youtube.

The red sensor light isn't on is it? On the dash?

Again this, need a new pad sensor first then reset
