Is the GS911 the only way?

[swilson]

Hey guys,

 

Just got home with a 2013 RT to replace my 2005 RT. My old RT didn't have the on screen service reminder. How do I reset this? Am I finally going to have to buy a GS911 code reader, or is there a cheaper way?

 

Thanks,

Scott

GS -911 or a trip to the dealer in Seattle

Still hanging out on BMWST I see!

 

Seattle is out of the question. I'm still saddle sore from the 1,500 miles to get this bike home!

Morning swilson

 

Basically a GS-911 or dealer computer is needed to re-set the service reminder.

 

Some BMW dealers will do a free reset for good customers (especially if you bought the bike from them)

 

With a GS-911 you can set the service remainder for w-a-y out in the future so it won't come on again for years but the dealer is forced to re-set to next mileage service or 1 year so they can't extend the service time for you.

I use my GS-911 to set the service reminders to the next odometer reading for the next oil change. This way the bike will let me know in advance when I am due for an oil change.
