Yes you can reset oil change indicator without special tools.

All cars will leak oil at some point, no exception for bmw, regardless of how much it cost. In fact, maybe the more expansive cars, maybe the sooner they leak
Thanks for the response.
I thought I remembered someone saying their car didn't call for the oil change until somewhere around 15K mi. While I'm long past the days of 3k mi. changes I have no problem w/ 10K with quality synthetic oil in most modern cars. (air cooled 911's are an exception).
Thanks again.
