Wheel tyre pressure moniter! help needed
My friend had his wheels stolen off his 4.6is, and because of cost he went for replica wheels, but these dont have the cut out for tyre pressure moniter, so this is giving him errors when driving! Has this happened to anyone else? Any advice how to get around this would be great.Without buying new BMW Wheels
Thanks in advance |
Copied this from the manual! Maybe this will help you.
Flat Tire Monitor The concept The Flat Tire Monitor keeps track of the inflation pressures in the four fitted tires as you drive. The system provides an alert whenever the inflation pressure drops significantly in relation to the pressure another tire. The check of the tire inflation pressure is based on monitoring the relative speeds of the wheels. A flat is detected and reported on the basis of a deviation in certain speed ratios. Functional requirement To ensure reliable operation, the system should have been initialized with the correct tire inflation pressure. System limits The Flat Tire Monitor cannot indicate sudden severe tire damage caused by outside factors and does not detect a natural, even pressure drop in all four tires.< In the following situations, the system could be delayed or malfunction: >When driving on snow-covered or slippery road surfaces >In the case of performance-oriented driving: slip on the drive wheels, high lateral acceleration >False alarms and undetected loss of pressure may occur when you are driving with snow chains fitted. Initializing system Perform the initialization immediately every time you correct the inflation pressure, change a tire or change a wheel or all wheels. A drive is required for this purpose.< 1. Before the start of driving, start the engine, but do not drive off 2. Press the button until the yellow indicator lamp in the instrument cluster lights up for a few seconds 3. Drive off. It takes a few minutes of driving before the Flat Tire Monitor can detect and report a flat tire. When driving with snow chains, do not initialize the system.< 530de419 Indication of a flat tire The warning lamp lights up yellow. There is a flat tire or extensive inflation pressure loss. 1. Reduce speed and stop the vehicle carefully. Avoid sudden braking and steering maneuvers 2. Identify damaged tire If identification is not possible, contact your BMW Sports Activity Vehicle center.< 3. Replace the damaged wheel, |
