TPMS requires reset every drive

darrensi · 09-04-2017, 05:48 PM

I've got a new and annoying issue on a 2015 320i. Got a warning that one of the tires was low - it wasn't we just had a big temperature drop and the car was sitting on cold wet concrete.

Anyway, I did the TPMS reset sequence and drove. The sequence completed successfully but now every time I get in the car it tells me that I need to do a TPMS reset. I've done it several times now but the warning never goes away.

Anyone seen this? Anyone know how to fix it without a trip to the dealer?

Thanks,
Darren

did you check the tire pressure though? you need to inflate or you actually have a slow leak in one of the tires. If its the same wheel every time, there is either a problem with the sensor (trip to the dealer) or you actually have a tire issue.

Yes, I checked the tire pressure - checked all four and they were fine. Sounds like I might have a bad sensor.

This happened on my F30 and now on the F22. Had the system replaced. I basically had 40 psi in each tire and kept saying they were low.
