Another break in service at 2500 miles?

I'm currently at 2360 miles on my M4 and whenever I start up the ignition, I get this message saying I need to take it in for service in ~120 miles. Under vehicle information, it says it's a break in service.

I've already taken the car to get its 1200 mile break in service and I was wondering what this 2500 mile service entails? Or did the dealer just forget to reset notification?

no required svc at 2500mi. idk if the svc tech forgot to reset you reminder notice or if there is somethig wrong with the car, and it is letting you know as such. but there is no 2500mi scheduled svc. i just had my car in for a 6mos "check up" (that the dealer scheduled when i bought the car back in august), but it was essentially a "pit stop" and they didn't do anything but top off fluids, pressures, etc. they checked for recalls and svc campaigns and generally looked over the car to make sure all was well. car has a shade over 5,000mi now. hope this helps.

Went to the dealer and they did a manual reset which, I believe, just resetted the break in service to another 1200 miles. I had them check again and it looks like that they have to plug into the car and reset it from there? Anyway, I have an appointment set up with them to do that in the coming weeks.
