Does the F30 have tyre pressure monitoring?

Hey Guys

As above, does the F30 have a TPMS and if so have all those who have changed to winters or larger alloys transferred sensors over, etc?

What was involved?

Thanks in advance.

Mine does. Haven't changed the tyres/wheels...it's still 10c here

Mine does too, again no wheel changes so can't comment on that

Is there an upgrade on the 3-series? 5-series has the TPMS option, but not seen it is optional on the 3-series.

Standard TPWS (warning not monitoring in the UK) is not an internal wheel sensor based system, but simply uses wheel speed to sense drop in pressure. So no issues with changing wheels to the correct dimensions and aspect ratios, just need to reset the TPWS via iDrive.
