I would be grateful if anybody could explain to me how to reset the puncture warning light (or does it have to be a dealer)?

in the i-drive, RPA, to reset the tyre pressure..... the status will show initialising.
then drive your car for about 10 mins and it will be done.
next time do a search befor posting, there are loads of the post about the tyre puncture warning light

With the ignition on and car stationary, go into the i-drive> vehicle settings> RPA>Reset/initialise>YES

It will show initialising

It will take some 20 miles of driving before it shows 'active'

Press The i-Drive Button down on the main menu

Then a green screen appears with a whole list of items,

Then click vehicle settings,

once you click it you have to push i drive controller up to scroll within its own menu,

either your system would be FTM or TPM, then when your at a standstill stop, you will be able to click the reset FTM or TPM , then click it to confirm resetting.

Drive away, and wait for it to reset,

Enjoy


BTW welcome to the board, hope this write up helps.
