My Ride: 2004 Blacked out 530i, Carbon Fiber Pillars, Carbon Fiber Emblems (Wheels, Steering Wheel and Hood/Trunk). Blacked out kidney Grill, Smoked side marker lights, 15mm Rear Spacers, K&N Filter, Window Tint, Navigon Syst. Breyton Front Lip. Bilistein Coil Over Suspension Front & Rear Droped 1.5" Genuine M5 Pedal set. Mtechnik side skirts, RPI Exhaust.
Does anyone know what causes my car to keep on sending a flat tire warning in my i-drive? I took the car into the stealership and the SA told me it was fine, and of course charged me a service fee cause i dont have the warranty any longer. I thought the problem would be my tpms sensors but how can i have them tested? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks....

I assume they fix it but im starting to think they just adjusted the pressure and reset my idrive. Damn Dealers, i tell you, they are a bunch of thieves..... So you think it might be a bad tpms?

Wow......I just did a search on here on TPMS and came up with some useful information that i wish i would of known before posting this question.....I came to find out that i DONT have TPMS on my car because every time i get that annoying message that i have a flat tire (which i dont) it re-directs me to the service section in the I-drive and it reads FTM. Which i was just told is different than TPMS. So, then i ask my self, is it still a broken sensor or? Anyone.......
