Hi quick question on the runflat monitor system

Wills 335 · 01-02-2010, 01:11 AM

Hi, I have a question about the run-flat monitoring system. So here it is: I purchased a 335xi coupe sports package that comes with the 189 wheels and runflat performance tires. Now since winter is here, I bought a set of the original all-season runflats (base model e92 same yr style as mine) oem bmw wheels. Now I know they don't connect to my system..but is there a way to disable the low tire message or have my system sync up to these wheels? I tried to reset it, but the msg still pops up. I wasn't sure that each system is specified for each set of wheels? Or maybe disconnect my tire valve caps and put it on my new setup. What can I do?

thx-
Will

You have three options.

1. No TPMS in new wheels = TPMS error that you keep getting
2. Buy OR swap TPMS to new wheels.
3. Get a TPMS canceler.

Oh - option three is illegal as it is illegal to bypass a Federally mandated safety device or system.

Buy a set of TPMS sensors and the light goes away and you'll still know when you have a tire problem. Buying a set of sensors is also cheaper than buying the illegal solution.
