Brake Pad Service Reset

jonw · 05-05-2012, 12:18 AM

I've fitted new pads and sensors to front and rear of the car and tried to reset the idrive service indicator back to the 15000 mile reset value.
When I go into the menu on the instrument cluster to do this I keep getting a ----- value where it should read 15000.
Has anyone come across this issue ?

I had this issue last week when I changed my discs and pads all round. Did you change the wear sensors?

The only way I could reset it was with my Bavarian Tech cable, I tried to do it through the indicator stalk 4 or 5 times but it wouldn't work. The first time I connected the car to my laptop, it worked.
