Since we have a rust/corrosion warranty, I believe the dealership needs to perform this inspection to keep it in force - but you might double check with them.

If you've ever read the details on the corrosion warranty, it says you have to have the underpanels removed and the underside of the body washed (presumably by BMW) according to a BMW procedure in order to maintain the 10-year corrosion warranty. The 30K inspection doesn't cover the cleaning procedure.

To the OP, if you think every thing is up to snuff, then go ahead and reset the notification using the service reset procedure provided in the DIY section.
