"The Diagnostic routine shown above will be discontinued when engine rpm exceeds 3000"

If that's true for an M42, I don't think I've completed a drive cycle since I bought the car!
Since they don't make any real power below 3500...

heh

For obd2, I've always found that the SES light resets immediately when I clear it, and then if the fault
redetects, it lights again. The 'Shadow' faults remain for some time, as the drive cycle doc shows,
but then clear after a while.
This is with BMW Scanner 1.41
