This was a huge help. The dealer did the "vehicle check" and did not reset the meter. This worked perfect and saved me a trip 15 miles away. One difference: I had to start my car in order to get the same menus you had. I have a 2011 E90 and when I went through your steps, the menus never came up. After I started the car, everything worked perfect. Thanks!
I have a 2012 328i (N52 engine). The local BMW dealer wanted around $800 for Spark Plugs, Microfilter (air cabin) and brake flush. I replaced the Spark plugs and filter myself for under $100 and then had a local Goodyear shop flush the brakes, all for less than $225. Reset the Service and brake fluid light. Took less than 5 minutes and worked perfectly. Dan from Kansas City
Thank you. great help. BMW did not want to do it because I had changed my oil and I did not let them change it again. Screw them. They charged me for repair, they have not done. I Hungary, these people are gangsters.
Just replaced the rear brake sensor on my E91 here in the UK, and needed to reset the service lights. Superb explanation, and has done the job. Result, and thank you!
I couldn't get my brake sensors to stay put, they kept falling out no matter what I did so I just cut the wires and soldered them together and reset the brake warning. now I can never get a code ever again because the circuit is normally closed and now I don't need the sensors. I think it's pretty obvious when your brakes are worn out. the sensor is useless.
Thank you sir, this was a great help, I was on the verge of searching for a diagnostic scanner to get rid of the horrible red message, especially as my car is in tip top condition. 🙏🙏
Thanks! The other video explaining how to reset the vehicle check lights were really unhelpful! This was exactly what I wanted to see and answered my questions.
Many thanks for posting this, it worked a treat, usual story, garage changed front brake pads and oil and filter without re setting the service reminders, this method cleared them straight away no problem.
Thanks so much man, just adding also make sure all your doors and boot is closed otherwise it wont let you access that screen. I bought my e92 330d recently and couldnt work out how to turn the vehicle inspection light off so this video was a god send. Cheers
Didn't work on mine. 2010 M3-spec wagon. If I pushed the starter button with no foot on the brake it just came up with an exclamation mark. Not the one in the triangle. If I have the engine running I and hold the odo reset I get the exclamation mark in the triangle but nothing else.
Awesome video - thanks. In own a 2011. 128i convertible 90k These steps reset everything else but the service engine light did not go away. I took it to the dealer and they ran diagnostics and said the oil sensor electronic module is returning error code. Estimated $675 USD I requested them to reset for now via their tool and paid them for other repairs ( valve gasket and oil filter gasket) only. They waived the diagnostic fee $175 One year ago the same thing happened and the dealer said one ignition coil failed and i just replaced one coil and put new plugs since it was due anyway In summary the issue can be anything so think before you spend and ask dealer or mechanic for reset and give it time before u spend money. Hope this helpd guys
Thank you!! I’ve watched so many videos and they were all wrong. This was the only I found that actually worked with my car. I need to save this video.
Thank you for the useful info! I've taken my car to the dealership 3 times for parts replacement & service since my service light came on last year, yet for some reason they didn't reset the service light. Finally got tired of seeing it & was trying to see if there was a way I could just reset it myself rather than make an appt at the dealership just to have them do what they forgot to do. This solved my problem. Thanks!

Excellent video. Have subscribed your channel. Video explaining how to reset the vehicle check lights and oil change. This was exactly what I wanted to see and answered my questions. THANK YOU.
Great steps my friend, I just reset my E93 M3 Oil/Brake Fluid Service lights. People who gave it a thumbs down are you know whats.......Keep up the videos...THX
Thank you just had my local mechanic tell me I would have to go to the BMW dealership because they could not reset the service indicator for having replaced my micro filter aka cabin filter. They kept saying it was catalytic and never said catalytic converter. Again confusing because I was like what does the cabin filter have to do with catalytic.... . Either way it was one of those you are a woman probably don’t know much about cars situation. So I got home found this video less than 10 mins later was done thank you.
GREAT ,NICE AND CLEAR EXPLANATION. STEP BY STEP GUIDANCE. IAM FROM INDIA. I HAVE DSC AND DTC ERROR CODES AFTER CHANGING BATTERY. PLS GUIDE ME HOW TO ERASE THOSE CODES. THANK YOU SIR.
Hi Vince I have a 2005 BMW 320i E90, I had the oil and filter changed last week as well as the air filter and brake pads also rear brake pad wear sensor. I have the amber engine management light showing and the car had a fault code of 2B63 camshaft sensor, exhaust.....I have since changed the camshaft sensor and the light did go off and came back on after a few seconds, could you advise me as to what the problem could be or is it possible that the light will go off itself after the car has covered some miles? Also thank you for a clear and informative video your time and efforts are appreciated thumbs up and a new sub from me 👍🏽
Thank you so much man! I had that stupid car lift service light on too for an "inspection" when I just had my annual inspection a few months ago! Saved me a wallet thinning trip to the mechanic for absolutely no reason lol
My 2008 335XI Chimes a few times every time I start it. Is there away to turn those chimes off. I don't mind a chime if there's an alert, but would rather it not chime if nothing is wrong. Thanks.....Nice video also.
Brilliant video, thank you. Just back from dealer oil service with service light still on, refused to reset it fully as i didn't get brake fluid done too. If they told me beforehand i would have got fluids done but i do very little miles and didn't think it needed it. Tyre shine on brakes and tyres which nearly caused me to have an accident at the first roundabout leaving the dealer and noticed slight damage to my door after getting home. After complaining they said they'll reset for no charge. They charge for this simple thing????
Brake wear indicator is on. Had brakes checked and there is plenty left. Must be faulty sensor. Can I use this procedure to reset the brake wear sensor indicator?
Thanks a lot! Had my car MoT'd and they didn't reset the 'roadworthiness check' warning light. Not critical, as MoT info is now online, but warning light was annoying.
Hi mate hope you can answer but I have the same car as was wondering if it’s normal for the engine light to be on while ignition on like it is with yours but goes off when engine started or is there a problem.
Hello Vince. What happens when at the very beginning after inserting the key and pressing the start button and what shows up in the Display is ! not the clock and mileage?
The most clear explanation of these texts. To the point, easy to follow not to mention devoid of annoying music. Superb. Thank you.

It worked for the most part. Had a couple of indicators that were missed to be resetted. One worked and one refused to work. Good video.

Thanks! The other video explaining how to reset the vehicle check lights were really unhelpful! This was exactly what I wanted to see and answered my questions.
Thanks Vince for a clear and easy to follow video. It helped me to re set my bmw service light after I changed oil and break pads. Big thanks
Thank you, you saved me dollars by this video.
Nice bro. Save my time for seeking the right video
great information ,clear and easy understand thanks for your video it help me

Life is so much easier to simplify than complicate. Brilliant stuff mate. Cheers.
Many thanks for posting this, it worked a treat, usual story, garage changed front brake pads and oil and filter without re setting the service reminders, this method cleared them straight away no problem.
Where did you found a bmw with a standard transmission and only 12k on the clock ??? Its a miracle
th-cam.com/video/BCoQG4VnpFo/w-d-xo.html
My 14 year old E92 N54 only has 70,000 miles, some people just don't drive a lot lol
I bought mine when it was 12 years only and only had 12k on the clock
He bought it.
Thanks mate this was very helpful as it was brief and clear
Thanks so much man, just adding also make sure all your doors and boot is closed otherwise it wont let you access that screen. I bought my e92 330d recently and couldnt work out how to turn the vehicle inspection light off so this video was a god send. Cheers

Stuart Aitken Yes, you need to close all the doors to get rid of the ignition on warning ⚠️ took me ages to realise
Awesome video - thanks.
In own a 2011. 128i convertible 90k These steps reset everything else but the service engine light did not go away.
I took it to the dealer and they ran diagnostics and said the oil sensor electronic module is returning error code. Estimated $675 USD
I requested them to reset for now via their tool and paid them for other repairs ( valve gasket and oil filter gasket) only. They waived the diagnostic fee $175
One year ago the same thing happened and the dealer said one ignition coil failed and i just replaced one coil and put new plugs since it was due anyway
In summary the issue can be anything so think before you spend and ask dealer or mechanic for reset and give it time before u spend money.
Hope this helpd guys
Superb Vince. Thanks so much
Good job mate👍👍 good explanation

One of the best I have come across. Thank you mate. I have just bought my 4th BMW and did not know how to reset it. Doing service myself. Brilliant.
Good job mate!!! Greetz from Poland.
It works. My 9-year old grandson reset the brake-fluid interval all by himself. 😉
Many thanks. Just managed to get mine reset. Worked on a Z4 E89.

Good video, very well explained. Thanks
Can you please make a video on diesel particle filter. Hoe to fix it if its showing on the secreen?
How in the world could this video get 159 thumbs down??? Great info nicely presented. Many thumbs ups warranted and one from me ;-)
BMW dealership owners?
There's no logic or sanity involved when it comes to great TH-cam videos getting thumbs down, don't even try to wrap your head around it.
YesUCan that could be just a simple mistake?
Thumb up
Some people just hate regardless😂
Thank you for sharing this valued information.
Great video mate. Really informative and very easy to understand.
Great simple well explained video. Thanks.
Nice and clear spot on mate.......😃👍🏴.
Thanks... worked like a charm!!!
One thing missing from this, is close the door, took me ages to try to get rid of the ignition on warning lol
Thanks !
Graham Eida dam me too!!!!! Couldn’t figure wtf was going on thanks!!
Great video and tutorial. Thank you.
I’m from Colombia and it helped me a lot, thanks a lot 😊
For any chance do you have the vehicle manual ?
They seem to change the actions of these from the older cars to the newer ones I have a 2011 this does not work
Thanks you. Worked for me.
My 2008 335XI Chimes a few times every time I start it. Is there away to turn those chimes off. I don't mind a chime if there's an alert, but would rather it not chime if nothing is wrong. Thanks.....Nice video also.
Thanks so much for this video and the way you clearly explained things.
Thank you so much! Those lights have been a tad annoying for a while haha
