I installed new microfilters today and reset the service menu. However, to my surprise it now shows 90K before my next replacement.

Can anyone confirm if this is correct and if not any suggestions?

When I did mine,it showed 40,000 miles.I assume different values may relate to where the car is exported to.Anyway,it's nothing to be concerned about.

I've heard one has to change the cabin air microfilters once a year...

That sounds normal. I was expecting it to say 10K-15K

My 2006 530i has 80K and the Cabin Micro Filter Service light just went off. I know the filters are easy to change, but how is the Service indicator reset? BMW wants $60 just to reset it and has said the owner can't. Thanks for the help.
