Hello, all. The other day, I replaced all 4 tires on my 2011 MCS. I was very careful to not damage the TPMS sensors. Got them all mounted and balanced, installed on car, fired her up, and had a low tire warning on the RF. Grrrrr.... Figured I had damaged that one. Drove home, about 30 miles, using the B/C button to clear the warning as soon as it came up. Of course, it kept coming back. Got home, shut the car off. About an hour later, restarted, and magically, no more TPMS warning! Been fine since then. Do these sensors sometimes respond slowly, or take a while to report the correct pressure? I am going on a 2,000 mile plus road-trip soon, and really want to fix any TPMS issues before I go.

Thanks for any advice you can give.

 

Pretty sure it's just a reset issue. Once you get new tires the TPMS will go off and then it should reset itself once you shut the car off. If you are that worried about it I would take it in to Mini and see if the can check it for you.
