We highly recommend you only reset the oil service light if your vehicle has been properly serviced. With that out of the way, let’s take a look at how to reset the BMW X5 oil service light at home:

  1. Turn your vehicle’s ignition to “ON” without fully starting it.
  2. Press and hold the TRIP reset or cluster button until the service menu appears.
  3. Now press that button to scroll through the different service items.
  4. Once you’ve scrolled onto the engine oil service menu, press and hold the button until the display asks if you want a reset.
  5. Press and hold the button again until the display shows a progress bar or a “Reset Successful” message.
  6. Turn your BMW X5 off, and the BMW X5 oil service light has now been reset!

Of course, the process can change depending on the exact BMW X5 model you have. However, the steps we’ve gone over above are likely similar to the process you’ll have to follow after your next BMW X5 oil change.
