What does this mean? - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

#-JONAS-# · 01-29-2013, 05:26 PM

I just looked through the computer in the car to see how much life was left on my brakes and everything else, and this one came up as the next thing to change, could anybody tell me what it means, I looked in the Owners manual but can't seem to find it...

Same as a British MOT, in concept, at least.

Ahh, okay, but that's not up until 2014, then why does it show this?

Sorry didnt realize that you were in spain. In the states. Some states require you do to an emissions test and/or inspection every 1 or 2 or 4 years. Depends on the state though.

The dealer probably just set the wrong date when they did the PDI on the car. You can reset it yourself.

You can go in and change the date to whatever you want, it'll warn you again before that date if you have any type of annual inspection in your country. If not, just put the date a few years out or something.

Yeah, we got the same thing here, every 2 years, it's just called ITV here.

And how do I reset it? If I reset it will I reset the service light aswell?
