X5 E70 Brake fluid and brake pads service reset

Hi

Just bought X5. Has full service history but when the previous owner changed the brake fluid and brake pads the indy has not reset the computer. Is this something that I can do? or do I need to go to another indy? BTW the book is stamped and there 's receipt for the job as well. Any thoughts?

Re: good BMW dealership in north or west London for Service

I think it is their standard practice to overcharge. I had 3 services from Spire Watford so far and they tried to overcharge me in all 3 occasions. Once pointed out the online prices they said the've forgotten to apply the discount. >:(

Re: E70 main dealer service

Mine had a oil service yesterday and counter was set to 19000 miles. 8000 miles for the rear brake pad change according to the computer though.
