Do you have a button with an ! on the lower part of the dash next to where DSC, HDC, heated seats, etc.. buttons are located? That should be the buttton for the Flat Tire monitor.
However, I believe until 2006, BMW used a passive monitor which detects a flat tire based on tire rotation speed. |

No, you don't need them. The monitors work off of the ABS sensors and don't directly measure pressure. They measure the difference in rotation when the vehicle is going straight. A tire with low pressure will rotate faster.

You sure you don't have it? It's the button on the far right. I have an '04 and have it.

Take the air out of one tire, drive around and see if you get a warning light Sorry John - couldn't resist.
