To reset the iDrive system in your BMW X3, you will need to hold down the Volume and Menu buttons on the iDrive controller for 20 seconds. This will restart the system and any errors or glitches should be resolved.

Another way to reset the iDrive system is by disconnecting the car battery for 15-20 minutes. This will clear the system's memory and any issues should be resolved.
