HELP: reset Brake service by mistake

MadBeamer · 08-14-2016, 09:38 PM

Hi everyone,

I had the car serviced recently, and but the service light said 6000miles, so I thought they forgot to reset and I did it. But I eneded up restting the brake service. Now I have the car on lift sign. So I went back tried resetting it again (both front and rear...at this point I knew I badly screwed up), but the left sign is still on , and I get ----miles when I reset them.

What can I do about this? Do i need to pop-in a new set of sensors for this to reset? I still havent driven it after this happened, would driving it help to reset it? How many sensors does 2008 328i coupe have?

any help on this much appreciated!

New sensors (one for font, one for rear) and then reset.
