resetting the oil and inspection light is the same process, just done for different amounts of time.

I really think this should be stickied...here's the link:

to reset the engine oil and service light jump the 7 and 19 posts on the diagnostic plug with a jumper wire...with the ignition turned off...turn the ignition to run, not start, and wait a couple of seconds, the oil light service indicators should go off.....there is more but this a start...good luck

I just got this BMW b/c a friend of mine own me some money and he said he will give me the car instead of the money. i like the car but im just not used to work on this kind of cars i will fix what ever needs to be fix and then i think i will sell it. now my question is how do we adjust the valves.
