E55 tune up?
Yesterday i installed my Green filters & did the ECU reset & my car felt significantly quicker than before. I thought it was in my head, but after driving the car this morning to work, i felt it & i'm sure that there was an big improvement.

3. Turn the key to the "off" position (don't remove the key), then release the gas pedal.
4. Wait at least two minutes for ECU to reset.
