Fuel range not updating and trip computer not counting

Hi,
I'm having an electronic / computer problem with my G20. My car has stopped counting the miles on the trip counter, they are stuck still where they are (the overall car mileage is counting fine), the trip counter refuses to reset also. The fuel range counter is stuck and won't move either, although the empty to full range moves up and down correctly.
I've tried using Bimmerlink to read and clear errors and had no success.
Any other ideas?

Take it to your dealer.

Have you done a reset of the iDrive? That will probably clear it.

Tried this but didn't make any difference unfortunately. Any idea on how to restore the software update? Hopefully that might do it…

You can't, AFAIK.

Sounds like you need a trip to your local stealer.
