Tire pressure recommendations would be inside the driver side door sill. Should be a little yellow sticker. After you get the proper pressure in the tires, you can re-set the ftm. There's great instructions in the OM on how to do it.

I just filled up some air in my tires and that warning went away... and what i noticed is the two tires on the drivers side were a little low on air, beacuse some prick stole that thing you put on to cover the air filling place on the tire.... But any ways do i still need to reset the FTM thing if the warning is gone

Yes, its easy to do, and that you know its functioning off of the current air pressure.

LOL. Sorry, but that cracked me up. Like Homer Simpson describing it.

I think you mean the valve stem caps. Apparently, it's not unusual to have these stolen off BMWs.
