Oil service interval counter?

Yes. I do!

Uh, no I don't... Forgot.

Check Motoringfile and Mini2, they have well organized DIY sections. It's in here somewhere (I think I even posted it once) but I don't know where.

Matt

ps, when you find it, post it again. Mines reading -1550!

reset

Here is how to reset the oil service light:

1) Press and hold the trip button
2) Insert key and turn to position 1
3) Watch for RESET to appear
4) Release the button, then press & hold it again
5) Wait for the RESET to flash
6) Release the button, and then press & release (once only)
7) Service interval should then be reset to next interval


notes

a) this is VERY timing sensative...it usually takes me 2 or 3 tries for it to 'take'

b) the words are hard to read.....
(I have this copied to the inside front cover of my Haynes....)
