    Ive had the battery tested and says its fine, battery monitering system reset ...?  How do you do that sorry for being dumb

    You can reset it with Carly or Carista (Smartphone apps, requires additional hardware sold separately) or have a BMW technician do it.  There isn't a way to do it from the car itself.  How old is that battery?  If it's the original 2013 battery you are probably headed for a replacement pretty soon anyway.
