This one very simple... ive done it recently... no need the OBD II com... all you need to do is follow this 3 simple step.

After all service

#1 Press the left Knob on dashboard for 5 second (Wait for the milage numbers to turn TEST / RESET)
#2 Turn the Key To Position 1
#3 Release the Knob and Press again 5 Second

If all goes well the service meter will reset ...

Ive done it on my E46 320/323i :) Good luck

sorry, i'm noob


just press the left knob (at the dashboard meter console) once after starting engine :)
 
Thanks xcrave for the very useful information. But what is the mileage after one resets it? 25k?
 
xcrave;619489 said:
around 26K i think... hmmm depends on the Car Series :) cheers

sorry to ask....
coz there got 2 reading right.....
1 with 100k++ km, the other was 3 digit only where the max is 999km and will turn to 0 afterwards.

i want to reset the 3 digit reading to 0 (zero) everytime i refill fuel on my e46.....

have try to press the left knob (at the dashboard meter console) once after starting engine.

but nothing happen?

thx for ur advise

Bro Xcrave
Hi there I just want to clarify the steps to reset milage mention above is the milage reading when we turn on the key before starting the engine, in which the reading for the milage inspection? If its the one then I can service my ride thru a normal mechanic
 
Today got my E46 sideskirting (both side) sprayed. Badly bruised and scratched due to road condition and parking. Did it at Mantin Ng Sembilan (so happened I am working at this side of the world). Job well done by a veteran Uncle name Ah lek at Batu 8. Cost for both side RM150. Any bros from Nilai or Seremban area want fast touch up, can contact me via PM for the uncle's no. BTW both side done in 1 1/2 hrs....cheers

read again, I changed my brake disc every 2 years..... not necessary though....

brake pad maybe once a year....

reason: my style of driving requires it....

the bulb are not the same bulb.... one by one they are dying in this 10 yr old car...
