You could always do it yourself, If you want someone else to do it I can do it real cheap tomorrow morning in my garage at home if you supply the oil and oil filter. If auto zone/advance auto parts doesn't have the oil in stock I'm sure triangle auto parts off of Fairbanks will.

Aside from that there's precision sport industries over in downtown Orlando that specializes in servicing bimmers.

I'd deff give Triangle auto parts a call, there the auto zone for euro cars if any shop will have it it'll be them.

Use only a BMW OEM oil filter. Aftermarket brands fall apart!

Oh, and to reset the counter

- Iginition OFF (POS 0)

- Press and Hold the trip odometer button while turning key to position 1 (ACCESSORY)

- Keep the button depressed (about 5 secs.) until you see "Oil Service" or "Inspection" with "Reset" or "Re" in the display then let go

- *Note: On vehicles with "High" cluster, you will also see the amount of fuel (in liters) remaining until next service

- Press the button again and hold for approx. 5 secs. until "Reset" or "Re" flashes

- While the display is flashing, briefly press the button again to reset the Service Interval. After the display has shown the new interval you should see "END SIA" for about 2 secs.

Note that if the "Reset" or "Re" does not flash, then you have not met the minimum consumption level and cannot reset.

doing it yourself doesn't save toooo much. I know the mobil 1 in casselberry will change your oil for like $13 if you bring the oil/filter to em.

Make sure you buy enough oil, it's not 5 quarts like 99.99999% of the cars on the road. I know my bmw 325ci took like 8

Not all aftermarket filters fall apart...

The only ones I would stick with are the Mobil 1 (same thing as the K&N too), Purolator Gold and the Royal Purple filters. Toyota and Ford have good OE filters. GM sucks. Not sure about BMW filters.
