Changed Cabin filter but now need to reset Idrive

panzer948 · 06-20-2011, 11:44 AM

My Idrive had been bugging me that I needed to change my cabin air filter for some time so last week I bought it myself and replaced it. But I cannot find in the Idrive menu where I can update it so the service indicator goes away. Any ideas? Thanks!

Thanks for your help but why scold me at the same time as helping me. I spent 20 mins of my lunch break looking for this info to no avail..... Maybe I didn't put in the right search terms but I never just post a question without looking first. Geez..

You call that scolding? Lol I even said please, and was in no way rude. Would you rather me have "scolded" you and on top of that not even given you the correct url? The post I referenced is on the first page in the Maintenance forum.

Basically, you were wrong in saying "Please try searching next time". As I stated, I had done that. Next time I will indicate so. Maybe that will avoid good folks like yourself from making assumptions. Also, I learned early on in my career to be very careful with emails, etc. as everyone interprets them differently. You can't pick up ones tone when reading a typed message.

The forum is suppose to be here to share and learn info from people that have a common interest. Obviously I was not as familiar with the correct terms as you are and my search results did not find the link. I am grateful for the help as it is obvious I needed help in doing so. I just don't understand why add the extra rhetoric?

Have a nice day...

It solves rpm fluctuating upon cold start-up. Also, for most BMW problems start off by scanning your car with the Peake Research Tool. It contains the actual BMW codes. If you want to register a newly installed battery for free (just buy a $10 cable) and google/download BMWLogger
