My Ride: 05 545i
i have a 2005 545i and ive had it for 2 months now and changed the oil on it today. I wasnt sure when previous owner did it so i figured i would do it myself for a piece of mind. The oil maintenance is OK and says 4200 miles. Is there a way to reset this, being i have changed the oil today. any info is appreciated...thanks.

i got an oil change at a local car repair shop and the mechanic said he didn't want to reset the oil due to the fact that he messed up a customer's brake system last time he tried. How did he do that i have no idea 
but the video above helped me reset my oil no problems.

the owners manual does not tell you how to do that, it says take it to the dealer and pay instead.
here is how its done
