Don't start me on Eastern. You can indeed fool most of the people all of the time.

Can you not do the pads yourself?
I did mine a few months ago on the F30 330d. Did the whole lot for £55 including Genuine BMW pad sensor from a guy on Ebay and Textar pads from Eurocar parts. Looked on youtube to reset the service warning. |

You only need a pad sensor if it's contacted the disc (i.e. the pad wear light has come on in the dashboard)
Anyone got a link though for the " pad life remaining" reset in the iDrive?

Make sure an replace the wear indicator if needed along with the pads Get into car and close the door Turn ignition on Press and hold the trip reset on the speedo The trip will reset to zero, hold through this and the mileage will come back again. Then I think at this point you let go, and immediately press and hold again You should then see a service menu in the dash display - let go now Press the trip button on/off again to sequence through the service tasks. Stop when you get to the brakes ( front / back ) Press and hold, it should then give you the option to reset, press again to reset A counter will show, and then clear the indicator back to 30k or whatever is should be Been doin this for years on MINI's and E90's Did the bro in laws X4 on Sunday

The problem is keeping the I drive happy since records are stored on the fob and idrive??
Doesn't this just get rid of the warning/reset? |

You can use this for service, brake fluid change or inspection

Fob and I drive will update accordingly
I have never let a dealer fit brakes on any of my cars. I have the service pack and that covers everything else

Did the local garage reset the iDrive or did you follow the instructions above? I assume the stupid quote was from Shitner Coventry?

Yes the local garage can do the reset on brakes but couldn't for instance add a service into the idrive system as this is closed down by BMW. Stupid quote came from Sytner Nottingham but i guess all their garages do the same. They really are piss takers ! |

Knowing Eastern, i wonder what they will think off in trying to rip me of this time after the service. Last time was the usual tack/nail in the side wall of the run flats, including filming of defect during inspection. New tyre required. Aye right. Ha Ha. Repaired at local tyre depot, just to be on the safe side, for so much less.!! |
