Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but no, that may only deal with resetting pad sensors. You need bimmerlink, for example, for putting the brakes into the proper service mode for pad change..., which is what I did.

Thanks. I'm planning to get bimmerlink anyway but this will accelerate the purchase.

I'll confirm when I get home. I'll go into that menu and see what it offers.

So getting into diagnostic menu is the same (three quick presses of start), but getting into the hidden menu involves holding the "list" button for about 20 seconds.

Once in there, though, I couldn't figure out how to activate anything. I was able to go into the other menu items by long pressing the "list" button, but couldn't activate things. I tried all the other buttons and they simply did their normal functions.

So, while I see the "service brake" option in the photos below, I couldn't figure out how to activate it. I'll do more searching to see if I can figure it out.

Found a couple of videos walking through the screens. I found them helpful to see what we're in for since this will be my first all screen car.
