Hello Bimmers! It’s me again. I flew over to England the other day, but unfortunately, I could not find any cars to film. I remember that my dad said that the Bentley dealer when he bought his BMW X6 E71/F16/G06 could not reset the oil service lights even though they did the oil change on the car.
Anyway, it will take less than a minute to sort out this content. This will also work on the G06, and I guess, other cars from the same generation. In other words, the last of the III generation cars. If you have an F-generation car-like that might be the F16 series, then read this guide. It would be straightforward for you to follow.

Warning! Please note your vehicle model. This tutorial will hold true for the BMW X6 E71/F16/G06 (2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 model years).
Time needed: 3 minutes
Alright, we’re going to be doing a service reset for the engine oil on the BMW X6 E71. This is also applied to the brakes, vehicle check, or anything else you cannot do via the idrive screen. So the way you do this is:
The first thing you need to do is to insert the key into the key slot and then press the START switch twice but do not put your foot on the brake; otherwise, the car will start up
Now press and hold the RESET button until the service thingy appears. The first symbol that will appear is the engine oil light. If you’re not quick enough with this menu, the service screen will disappear
To reset the engine oil light, you need to have the image of an Oil can up. You can short press the RESET button to cycle through the menu and find it
After that, you have to hold down the RESET button until it says reset with a question mark
If you want to reset the light, just hold down the RESET button until the mileage and clocks have no numbers, and then next to them, a new mileage and new date will suddenly appear
So that’s how you reset it. If you liked it, please share it on your social media. I don’t just do DIY content; I also do in-depth tours and click reviews. So if you’re interested and want to see more content, please read my other post. I’d be most grateful. Anyway, thank you so much for reading this content. Have a good day and take care.
