Thanks for posting this. Just reset the service lights on mine after doing an oil service. Slightly different, mine said RESET SIA: then some numbers but I managed it in the end.

You can use may scanner if your not far from me, mine has the oil service warning up as well, I want the book stamping though, so was going to get a garage to change the oil and filter and stamp the book. May reset the light myself first with the scanner to test it out first.
anyone got a BMW rubber stamp I can borrow!
