Can't find spark plug reset

Did my plugs today with replaced the original Bosch plugs that came with the care with NGK Platinums. Definitely smoother all around, even with only 44,500 on the car.

The question is that i've looked at several DIY threads, searched google and watched YouTube videos on the subject of resetting the spark plug service interval in my computer. Many e90's seem to have this option, but my computer doesn't show me any plug icon at all when I get to the service menus no matter what method I try to reach the menu.

I'm guessing my car simply doesn't have the option but I find that strange.

2008 328i.

Let me know if I just don't have it. Thanks!

Yeah, car is new to me as of about two weeks ago so there's some things I want to do to ensure that everything's tip top. I will be changing oil tomorrow even though the dealer I purchased it from did an oil change but didn't reset the oil change service in the computer and used the wrong synthetic...just standard Castrol 5w30 synthetic. I'll know more about what filter they used after the change.


Plugs were surprisingly dirty for the mileage it has on it, and I definitely feel a difference in the idle and smoothness of acceleration. I guess there's no computer setting for them though.
