On the instrument cluster in the center there are two buttons (clock and s/r) .Press and hold the s/r (i think thats whats on the button) and turn the key to the first position. at first it will say TEST in the cluster. keep holding the s/r button and it will flash to your SIA (service meter) release the button and press and hold until it says reset (or reset flashes) and then press again. just play with it im going off of memory. just dont be afraid. as usual im sure your local bmw dealership would be glad to help

It requires a tool that attaches to the computer connector above the driver's left shin.
There are instructions on the web for making home-made oil light reset tools, but you are dealing with very expensive electronics in that car. I cannot recommend that you try making your own tool.
If you are interested in doing some of your own maintenance and repair, you might consider buying a scanning tool that will reset the oil and inspection timers. Peake is the most popular brand among BMW owners. Just make sure that it says that it will work on a 2005 model car.
