US market Minis have tire pressure monitor sensors.
European / Mexico doesnt
Run flat tires are very hard to dismount, not any tire repair shop will do the job.
Be careful, very careful who does the job. I went to a shop recommended by Mini and they scratched my rim

Thats all.

 

I wonder where are you located, I actually live in Tijuana and I've never thought about that, if I'm down there and I need to change a tire, where do I go?

 

Monterrey

 

Oh nice, I'll be there in October, I was thinking of driving it there but I think I'll fly instead, It would be a cool road trip, Depeche Mode is playing!

 

Just saw them in Chicago! One of the best live bands I have ever heard. Have fun!

 

Not quite true!

My 02 MCS do have tire pressure monitor (well actually they're controlled by the ABS system) but it does work flawlessly... I've seen it work once!

It detected a very tiny pressure difference on one of my tires (1 psi difference) and I found a small nail which got repaired at that moment.

I don't have runflats since I rather use normal tires and I learned to rely on the tire pressure indicator and the MINI Mobility System which basically is an electric air pump and a can of sealant that came in my MINI.
