For BMW's Electronic Parking brake, it can be MANUALLY retracted using a common tool.

This is a video showing how..



This is the tool that I bought which is similar and works on my 2018 M5

I used the procedure from the video that you linked the first three times. I got so sick of it, that I said there MUST be a better way to do it. There is. Watch that first video I linked.

SOMEBODY will eventually make an affordable electronic tool that will retract the pistons. The dealer's tool can do it for sure.
