I just finished changing my oil this morning, Mobil 1 synthetic oil around 7 quarts.

My problem is to reset the onboard computer?

Do I have to go to a dealer to get it reset?

Oil Change(and more) CBS reset instruction.

Since the average price of full synthetic is about $7 - $8 a quart and these cars take 7 quarts plus oil filter I would say this BMW dealership is offering a very good deal.

But still it's only a oil change!

A proper service also includes new air filters, and they are expensive, but also a checkup.

300 E for a full "small service" plus a small grantee job is what I will get and go for.

At the dealers.
