has anybody synched up some aftermarket TPMS sensors on a 2008 535xi? Is it a PITA, or a simple process?

Also, if I have my stock wheels in the garage and the new wheels w/ new sensors on the car what will happen when I park in the garage? will the car see two signals from each wheel? Any interference or anything?

It is automatic (just did it). You don't have to worry about the other TPMS's in the garage. The car syncs when it is rolling. Go through the iDrive system when you have rolled 30 or 40 yards tops, and it will reset based on the tire pressure you have.... you're done from that point.

what do you have to do in the iDrive? just go to TPMS menu and then what?
