2000's and early production 2001's worked differently. See this article - http://www.xoutpost.com/articles/x5/e...ts-bmw-x5.html

Yes. I posted the above instructions and have a 2001 X5 4.4i which I have reset numerous times. You might be erring in not pressing the odometer stalk WHILE the display is FLASHING. If you don't do it while the display is flashing you have to start the proceedure all over again.

That doesn't work on early production 2001's. See the article link I posted above.
