  1. Oil maintenance reset light “Impossible”

    Well, at least one of you is right.

  2. Oil maintenance reset light “Impossible”

    At this point, using BimmerLink doesn’t remove the service reminder. It cleared the original oil maintenance light but as you said BMW doesn’t want someone like me resetting it too often too early.

  3. Oil maintenance reset light “Impossible”

    Yes, the “next service due” notice shows up every time you start the vehicle. It has nothing to do with anything you do. It didn’t push it out 2,000 miles, it reset to 03/2027 or 10,000 miles and he has since driven more than 1,000 causing it to now say 03/2027 or 9,000 miles until next service...

  4. Oil maintenance reset light “Impossible”

    Might have been my fault, when I did my oil change at 4000 something, I didn't have a notice to do so, so I may have forgotten to do my oil reset. I think the oil maintenance alert came up sometime after that and I cleared it. Then it came up this recent time, cleared it but the Service Due...

  5. Oil maintenance reset light “Impossible”

    Yep. Once you hit the mileage or date the notification will persist and say service is due. If you go a month past that, it'll say overdue (the little yellow indicator might change to red, but don't quote me on that). That aside, if your last reset was done when the vehicle had ~7000 miles, I...

  6. Oil maintenance reset light “Impossible”

    The transient notice informing you of the next maintenance date when starting the car will always occur. When the date (or mileage) arrives, the message will persist in the notification center of iDrive. This is normal behavior for all modern BMWs.

  7. Oil maintenance reset light “Impossible”

    Everytime I start the car it says Service Due 03/27, 9000 miles, then disappears within a few seconds. When this happened last time, I cleared the notice and it was gone. It came back this time, I was planning to do my oil change at 8200 miles or so, so I cleared the notice since it would take...

  8. Oil maintenance reset light “Impossible”

    I am a bit confused; 03/27 is in the future so that sounds like BimmerLink correctly performed the reset. The transient maintenance reminder when you start the car is normal.

  9. Oil maintenance reset light “Impossible”

    Im currently in this phase. 2023, 7300 miles. Did 2 oil changes at 1200, 4200. I got the oil reset light come up, reset it with BimmerLink, light comes back as Impossible. So every time I start my car I just get a brief notice of oil maintenance by 03/27 or 9000 miles and I can’t get rid of it...

  10. Oil maintenance reset light “Impossible”

    Hey everybody, new to this site. I found it after I experienced a problem at the dealership and looked for the answer online. I have to say, after reading this thread I solved the problem rather quickly, so thank you! Get this….. 1045 miles on the Supra odometer and the oil service required...

  11. DIY Forged Internals in the comfort of your garage without removing the engine; and how I almost blew my engine.

    Make sure to do your retorques... i did 3 and 3 oil changes before I let it get into boost... all that by 500miles.

  12. DIY Forged Internals in the comfort of your garage without removing the engine; and how I almost blew my engine.

    It went pretty smooth for the most part. Issues that arise: Disassembly: - Cradle bolts and oil pump bolts are weak and will shred if the socket isn't perfectly on them. -Buy all the bolts and tools ahead of time to reduce delays. - This is a good opportunity to replace the plastic oil pump...

  13. Oil Change Walk-Through with Pics

    Yes, we do know a workaround for this.

  14. Oil Change Walk-Through with Pics

    ...up is definitely very detailed and helpful. However whenever I go in to the diagnostic mode and do the reset procedure it says that my oil reset is impossible. I'm guessing because the car only has 1500 miles on it. But it is due for service by time and for some reason it won't allow me to...

  15. Super cheap Amazon obd2 scan tool for Supra

    If your oil light says reset impossible, you will not be able to reset it manually with the secret menu. You will need a scan tool fyi.

  16. Super cheap Amazon obd2 scan tool for Supra

    Okay so you can reset the oil maintenance light? Which is pretty easy to do without any OBD tools. I would still prefer Bimmerlink over your OBD tool because while the OBD tool may reset some maintenance lights, Bimmerlink can also register new batteries, provide actual oil levels and much...

    Like this? And yes, I'm borderline illiterate.. just ask around.

  18. Super cheap Amazon obd2 scan tool for Supra

    🤦‍♂️ 🤦‍♂️ I am not sure if you read or even looked but the one I got can reset maintenance and oil lights. Yours CAN NOT….

  19. Oil pump tsb?

    I also kept failing my reading at 21 percent. What worked for me was to start from a cold start and idle for 5-10 minutes and as SOON AS the "measure oil level" was selectable, I measured oil. It works for me, I dunno why, but if I drive anywhere longer than 10 minutes it doesn't allow me to...

  20. Oil pump tsb?

    So, the saga begins. Took the car out of storage this Spring and it said I needed an oil change (time not miles as I had only driven it 1200 miles since 11/23 as I was down to 2mm on the front pads from track days). Anyways, got the brakes done last month and I kept checking the oil level...
