'06 330i How can I reset a warning light "red (!) " for tire pressure?

gpropa · 09-10-2009, 09:49 AM

I got new tires for my '06 330i yesterday. After driving the car for a bit, the red exclamation point warning lamp came up for a tire pressure monitor. They aren't run flats. Is there any way to get rid of that annoying lamp?

look in the owners manual...it depends on whether you have iDrive or not.

you can do it without it. just toggle around around in that menu on the dash and theres a reset button.

Its easy, on the blinker stalk just press the menu button down a few times till you see the tire symbol then push in the button at the tip of the stalk to reset and you should see a check mark and there you go.

+1, make sure you are stopped though. you have to hold the stalk button.

That's because you're on the wrong forum. 2006 330Ci is a E46.

E90 has no "tire pressure sensor light" to hold down.

Also did you check the dates of these posts you replied to? 2009 was the last post.
