FAQs
Can I reset the service menu myself?
No — this video only shows how to access the service information. We reset service items using our dealer-level diagnostic tool.
Will checking the service menu update my online history?
No — it only shows onboard memory and does not affect digital records stored on BMW servers.
Does this menu work on all 2nd Gen MINIs?
Yes — this method applies to R55, R56, R57, R58, R59, R60, and R61 MINIs made from 2006 to 2016.
