I’ve searched but not found and answer on the forum. Today I had oil changed, because it was close, and inspection performed, because it was passed due, at a local independent garage that specializes in Euro cars including MINIs. Guy told me he reset the service indicators before I left (because I asked him specifically to make sure that could be done). Was in a hurry to leave the shop and didn’t actually pay attention to the service light when I fired it up. Tonight after running errands, restarted the car and noticed the yellow service indicator at startup, scrolled through the service menu, and oil service reads 460 miles 11/2020. So obviously, the garage did not reset that. So, with no special scan tools or apps, is it possible for me to reset the oil service interval? Or will I need to take it bake to the shop to have them do it? I’ve search my owners manual, this forum, and MA but have found no answers.

I know some of you change your own oil. What do you do?

 

same basic process for all the 'service counters'

 

Thank you so much. In the interest of sharing info, I received this info from an MA member this morning. Hopefully I can link the thread on the MA forum.

Just went out to my car at lunch and reset the oil service interval. The part I was missing was to press the start button without the clutch held in, so as not to start the car. Thanks All!
