If you own a 2015 BMW X1, it's important to regularly change the oil to maintain the longevity and performance of your vehicle's engine. Once you've changed the oil, you will need to reset the oil life indicator to ensure accurate readings for your next oil change. Here's how you can reset the oil life on your 2015 BMW X1:

Step 1: Turn on the Ignition

Make sure your key is in the ignition and turn it to the first position, which is also known as the accessories position. This will provide power to all electrical components without starting the engine.

Step 2: Navigate to the Service Menu

Using the directional buttons on your multifunction steering wheel, scroll through the menu options until you reach the "Service" menu. It may also be labeled as "Vehicle Info" or "BC (Board Computer) Functions" depending on your vehicle's configuration.

Step 3: Enter the Service Menu

Once you have reached the "Service" menu, press the BC button or the OK button (located on the end of the turn signal stalk) to enter the menu.

Step 4: Select the Oil Service Option

Scroll to find the "Oil Service" or "Oil" option within the service menu. When you have located it, press the BC or OK button once more to select it.

Step 5: Reset the Oil Life

You should now see a confirmation message asking if you want to reset the oil life, along with a prompt to confirm your selection. Press and hold the BC or OK button until you see a message indicating that the oil life has been reset.

Step 6: Turn off the Ignition

Once the oil life has been successfully reset, turn off the ignition by removing the key from the ignition or pressing the Start/Stop button.

That's it! You have successfully reset the oil life on your 2015 BMW X1. Remember to keep track of your oil change intervals to ensure optimal engine performance and longevity.
