My Ride: 2004 BMW E60 530i, upgrades: Magnaflow exhaust, Mtec angel eyes and low beam head lights, Just purchased 172 style wheels, looking around for the best tires on Tire Rack now. R1 concepts rotors drilled/slotted. Saving for the M-style kit from Trinity Auto.

Any suggestions on how to reset this again would be helpful

I saw a bunch of videos of resetting idrive on YouTube. Good luck! Post pics of your new wheels when you get a chance.

Hi

You will need to change the sensor at the brakedisc's , is that just slightly "rubbed off" , is it not possible ( without a BMW DIS tester ) to re-set it !


Regards
