Gotta start w/ the basics. Did your shop transfer, or install new, TPMS sensors? Check your invoice or give a follow up call. The first gens could get by w/ just a reset b/c they use the ABS system (IIRC) to determine wheelspeed and use that to indicate a low tire (which works.... Mine is sensitive to 2PSI!)

If new TPMS sensors were used, my guess is that they're the wrong frequency and they'll need swapped for the right ones.

Please note, as of the Sept 2009 build date MINI has a different frequency for the TPMS sensors. Please note the option on the drop down menu for build date and slight price change for the newer TPMS kit. Also, the Gen3 MINI ("F" series models) use a different kit as well. Please select accordingly.
