I looked the manual on how to reset the tyre pressure indicator, it says i have to select the 'INIT' menu, but i cannot find it when i scroll through the options, why is this?

are you scrolling through the menu on the OBC stalk?

Use the little cog thing on the stalk till you see the option, then press the BC button at the end of the stalk once and once again (but the second time keep it pressed) You should see the tick and at this point drive off (do all of this whilst in Drive with foot on brake)

Thanks what I do n e way

Yea i am using the little stalk, but i wasnt in drive, do i have to have the car in gear with the clutch in to get up this option?

You have to have the ignition on to access the full menu

not sure about the manual but with my auto Im pretty sure I still see the option even if in Park but I cant do the actual reset unless Im in D with foot on brake.

If you go through the options using the wheel on the stalk do you not see the option at all?

I dont have iDrive but with Idrive cars im pretty sure you do it through the iDrive

This might help

No, just press the key in and press the ignition without footing the brake.
(I think you can do this operation with a running engine and parked anyhow, but not 100%)
Roll the little rocker until you get the reset page on the dash, press once and release. Press again and hold for a few seconds until tick in box appears.
Start car if not running, and drive off...

For accuracy, set all the typre pressures correct with the tyres cold (parked for more than 4hrs).
Then perform the reset and drive off for a little run.

The car is memorising how many rpm each wheel is doing when you are driving straight over a period of time.
So from that the computer can work out if you have a flat tyre - that wheel will be spinning a bit faster than the one opposite as the diameter decreases.
A difference of about 6psi (quickly) seems to trip the alarms.
