milage to next service hasn't gone down since 1200 mile service

skim · 04-19-2009, 01:43 AM

i got my 1200 mile service on wed (been enjoying the trip to 7500 RPM time to time tho i want to hit 2000 miles before fully redlining it).
the dealer reset the "miles till next service" and it was showing 15000 miles.
it's been 350 miles since then and not to mention some spirited 1-2-3 gear all to about 7500RPM, it's still showing 15k miles.
does this sound right or did the dealer forget to click a "start" button?

Wait a little bit more, I have a KM spec cluster and the distance drops in 1000km incremental.

I'd suggest waiting another thousand miles...

Granted, and I will admit I bought my M used since the market was rough and the option was great at the time, I had 3k miles on mine. Next oil change mileage was reading 10k then it fell to 9k and now its at 8k. I have 8.2k on it right now, so I'm gonna take it in, hope that helps, it will go down in time.
