Increasing/ decreasing oil change interval in iDrive?

Long story short, I got an oil change done last week and when I returned to the car, the next oil change interval in iDrive was unchanged (I got my oil change done early to fit in an oil analysis).

So I asked him to reset it to a normal interval (i.e. 7500mi). I know I can remember when to get my next oil change, but it's nice to have everything in order on iDrive and if I do forget, it will remind me (since that's what it's there for anyways). So I asked him to do so, and the second time i got back in my car it read 10,000! Not really caring too much about it, I left. But now, it kinda bugs me...

Anybody know how to change my interval back down to 7500mi?

Thanks,
AP

The idrive oil change interval is 15k miles, not 7.5k miles.

I believe you have to just change your oil when it says you have 7000-8000 to go.
