BMW X5 2012 - Service required message - Richie_gr - Gabar

Hello everyone,,

My car has had its service today and all messages have been cleared. However, on the idrive centre console, there is a message stating Service Required. Can I clear this or does it need to go back to the garage????.

If the message just refers to the cars annual inspection check ie MOT you can reset the date via the idrive. If its to do with the car servicing you can often clear this by using the trip mileage button and pushing until you get to the right menu. Plenty of instruction on google or u tube.

Failing this garage plug in laptop!

DO NOT CLICK ON THE ABOVE LINK

The OP has repeated the exact same message as before with the link inserted.

Looks like something very dodgy to me.
