hello guys, I’m new here
Just got myself a Mini F56 from Japan Recon (not a BMW, I know, but it has a similar idrive and computer system as most recent BMWs, so I’m trying my luck here)
Went to BMW authorised dealer for a service booking, and when he checked my key.....there’s....nothing
Mileage 00,000 km (in red)
Central Data 20,790 km (my current mileage is 28k)
Everything is red/overdue and requires a service too, however based on the CBS everything is fine
Also, the CBS status for Engine Oil has been stucked at 17,000 km everytime I start my engine eventhough I have travelled ~4000 kms already since the day I got it, normal?
I do realise that the recon people did tamper with the mileage (export cert states 10,000 km more compared to my mileage) - how do I revert it and get everything working again?
It’s quite annoying to have a broken/tampered unit
My current plan is to service everything again and get my peace of mind.
Note to self - don’t do this again
Thanks guys!
