OEM oil change intervals vary; every 7,500 and every 10,000 are most common. Time is also a factor. My maximum time is six months. I usually change oil in the 5,000 - 7,500 range. As far as reset goes, that function is found within my instrument cluster.

I have found the check oil function accurate to four ounces. Beyond four ounces produces an "add oil" display.

You might as well tell the rest of those who don't know how to do the check oil function procedure.

For a 2000 E55, and the vehicle in a level position, one begins with the ignition key in the second position. Do not start the vehicle. With your instrument cluster displaying the odometer, press the up arrow twice. This will display the oil level screen, and begin the oil level measuring function. Within ten seconds the display will read: Oil level OK, Add oil level low, or Reduce oil level

To your 99" you need to sit the key in position 2 (not start the engine) & wait 10 - 15 seconds. when the display say "CHECK OIL LEVEL?" you need to push 2 times the "0" button in the instrumment cluster & then say OIL OK, FILL, REMOVE or so.. (you need to have the car in 100% horizontal position)

There is an a/c diagnose tool in the climate control that I thought was pretty cool...
