Tire Pressure & Temperature Display?

Does anyone know how to enable tire pressure and temperature display on my MY16 iDrive? I vaguely recall reading somewhere that it's possible.

Weird. Mine was already enabled when I picked up the car. Unless my CA did it without asking me.

In the US if that matters.

No coding necessary. Main Menu -> Vehicle Info -> Vehicle Status -> Tire Pressure Monitor (first option).

I have mine set to preset 1 since it's buried.

Seeing as you're in Canada, remember that our cars don't come with TPMS sensors from the factory....the car uses wheel rotation speed differences to determine low tire pressure.

So unless you pick up the sensors afterwards, you won't see tire pressure readings

Can Canadian cars be retrofitted with TPMS? Prefer that over tire rotation detection. Not sure if this was BMW's way of cheaping out.
