It should work. I upgraded to 26.02 last week and the tech forgot to reset the oil and brake service indicators (both were done while the car was in). The shop foreman reset them via the trip odometer reset. Interesting, he tried it with the door open and seat belt off and had a problem. He had to close the door and put the seat belt on before he could get it to work. Try that.

Hi All I'm trying to reset the micro filter in Service via the odometer. Car is a Nov-05 E61 525d. I don't get it to work.
I've read several threats about this.
I put the key in (don't press the start button). Set the odometer to zero. take out the key and instert it again (someone mentioned this worked for him), then press the odometer button until I see the triangle with the exclamation mark (!).
Then I'm supposed to quickly let the odometer go an press it again so I can go through all service items. I tried this with door open and without the seatbelt and with the door closed and with the seatbelt on.
Problem remains the same. As soon as I let go the odometer the exclamation mark immediately turns back to the data and time again. Very quickly.
Any ideas what the problem might be?
Thanks!
PS.
I did go into the other menu once before (with the small digits which appears if you hold the odometer longer) so to check the engine temperature when driving. That worked.
