Resetting Service Indicator E60 M5

[Air Support]

Have just got the car through an MoT - only needed two new tyres

However the service indicator was set for a statutory service in May (i.e. MoT) so the Check message light is now on all the time.

Anyone know how to reset this?

Thanks

I don't know the answer, but strangely the LCI cars don't have the interval for the MOT stored in the iDrive - presumably because they realised lots of people may take their cars to places other than BMW for MOTs?

The LCI E60's might not but my LCI E61 does have an MOT interval. I suppose it might depend on your version of idrive.

Its easy, you do it yourself in iDrive. Just click on the item, and you can change the date to the date of your next MOT.
