How To Reset BMW E70 X5 Service Lights | Brake Fluid Change Tips 

Thank you brother!!! Dealer pissed me off and stated I was not capable of working on my own 2013 x5 xdrive 50i.......Just need to reset code on brake fluid since I am old school and feel it is fine. Saved me $$$. Stay blessed and keep them videos coming.

Thanks so much for these vids. As a fairly new owner of an older X5 35d & guy that likes to do as much of his own maint as possible, your vids have made my life much easier.

I have a 09 x5 and you've saved me a good amount of money thank you.

Big thanks! We “inherited” a 2012 X5 and it’s shocking to see how many people submit to the dealerships for unnecessary work or simple stuff like this.

Thank you for the understanding. We drive our car about 5000 mi. every 2 years. This info is very helpful. Keep up the very correct attitude and insite.

My X5 e70 has this exact same problem. Searched around for a few videos to help me out. This helped me out so much ! Thanks buddy ! Keep these videos coming ! Love you’re work man.

This is the only tutorial that helped me, thank you so much!

WOW, You are wonderful in describing everything in details!!!! Thanks for sharing all DIY tricks for BMW with us!!!

Awesome video. Thank you! I couldn't figure out how to reset the brake fluid service light. Great instructions. Reset and you saved my $170.

Thanks a lot for this video. Went to Canadian Tire and bought a liter of DOT 4 brake fluid and some 1/4in clear tubing. Made myself a little reservoir from a used water bottle (Learned that on Chris Fix channel) and essentially did the job for under $25 CAD. Very easy to do. Especially if since I needed to take the wheels off to change the tires.

Very straight .. and totally covered presentation of this “made to be complicated BMW !

I agree. When my mechanic did my brakes, I told him to look at the brake fluid. He looked and said it is clean. So I agree that every two years is not super necessary.

Perfect video I already change it but not in 2 yrs lol. Thanks for the help!!

I saw the year 2020 and 2022 displayed. Now we are there :-)

Awesome hacks. Thank you so much. I have had Brake fluid indicator on, and my car is not even done 2000 KMs. I will try and do this for my car to that I am not bothered with this indicator anymore. Cheers

Thanks for the tip, I always forgot the steps on how to do this quick hack.

Thanks for the video, I just change my oil now I can reset . Cheers

Great job 👍🏽🎉❤

You are absolutely right about the dealers, they just suck up money, if you can afford to buy BMW why not services. That's what they think.

Thanks so much for the tip. Do you happen to know how to remove the cargo panel where the satellite console is? Can you make a video of it?

Thank you very much for such a clear and open minded way to approach the situation with do it yourself opposed to going to the dealer with simple issue like changing fluids and then resetting service indicators yourself My question is though do you have any solutions to what to do with the seat restraint fault code passinger side ..in the bmw x5 3.0 2007

Awesome 👌 info thanks

Thank you

Thanks Dude!!!

Good, well explained process. Thank you. Further to this, how do you reset the E70 brake wear distance to run after pads and rotor changes on the front? I changed mine a little early (warped rotors, steering shimmy) and still had about 1000 km to go on the pads. Still indicates that after the parts were replaced. Edit. Fixed! I wasn't holding the reset long enough.

great video, thanks!

Thanks for the info. Subscribed!

If you can make a video how to delete suspension malfunctions after switching air bags for coilovers that would help tons

Thank you brother for the info I recently bought 2013 bmw x5 35d another question what brand name of DEF fluid do you use on your vehicle also for the brake fluid do you recommend use the stuff from the dealership or conventional brake fluid from the auto parts . Thanks

Hi, great video with lots of really useful information. I have a question for you though... My 2009 X5 has an intermittent problem with starting, in that when I put the key in the slot all the relevant dash lights come on but when I press the brake and then push the start button, nothing happens. It's the same with both keys. Please help...

Thanks so much for this. I have a 2013 X5 50i. I have another question maybe you could help me with...We we’re having trouble with the rear air ride suspension so we replaced the bags with springs. Works great! However, the system still thinks there is a problem with air ride and is throwing the level control malfunction message up. Is there a way to reset the light or discard it??
