So I brought up the Vehicle Info and turned to the TMPS item on the menu list and pressed the memory button thinking it would at least remember this menu screen so I could then select TPMS later, but it ended up remembering the TPMS screen as I originally wanted. Then I realized how BMW designed it and the rest of the things I wanted memorized were easy to setup.
Yeah I understand that, I was just confused as to why it wouldn't work after I put an address in. I would hover the selection over 'start guidance' and then hold the button to program. It would take, but the button would not be programmed for that address, just whatever address I happened to have in the system. (Most recent) NOT always my home.
