the E53 has BMW's legacy RPA TPMS system that does not use sensors. The DSC module monitors individual wheel speed, and when a variance is detected due to an under-inflated tire, the light is illuminated. Any time you air up a tire, you should hit the reset button on the switch console

Ditto the replies above. BMW has two types of tire pressure monitoring systems...a direct (RDC/TPM) and an indirect (RPA/FTM) system. The e53 from 4/04-til end of production...used the indirect RPA/FTM (flat tire monitor) system.
So your 2006 e53 does not use TPM sensors inside the wheels. It uses your ABS/DSC wheel speed sensors to calculate wheel revolution to determine the loss of air in the tire:
