Low tire sign

josemh23 · 11-05-2012, 11:47 AM

Recently got a flat tire, patched it and inflated it again. The warning sign despite trying to reset it is still on. It keeps on saying that the tire is low and can't reset it. Could it be a faulty sensor when they fixed the tire?? That warning light is annoying !!!

You have to reset the "target" tire pressure.

Have you checked the actual tire pressure? And what is it? Then go into the iDrive or BC and reset the TPMS while the car is ON but NOT moving! The light should go out then.

Yea reset it while the car is on but still parked and then after a few turns of the tire when you start moving it'll go out.
