Guys, they're air filters for the cabin and have no bearing on mileage (if you think about it). I wouldn't worry about the reset reading, instead change the filters every 2 years.

I agree. I am more concerned that my dealer is going to see that and start questioning things. Still have a few months left on my CPO.

BMW calls for 100k miles, but I think that is way to long, already so much crap in the filters that I changed out of mine.... since its the air we breathe, I would rather spend the $30+ and feel better
