Low tire pressure (all 4 at once)

Got in and got a low pressure warning. I assume the triangle is supposed to be only pointing at the bad tire on the display, but all 4 have little triangles next to them. I think it flashed briefly on on the right front, then went to all 4.

All 4 tires are at 35 psi. time for a trip to the service dept. $#!T

I assume there is no way to reset this DIY.

Anyone know?

ok see where i can reset it. let me try to do that

now the tire warning on the speedo is still lit, but the warning on the display is gone after the reset.

Did it throw a code? Can that yellow warning light be removed with a code reset?

Well, I was thinking of getting a scanner anyway

Yea it can take a bit before they fully reset. Any big change in temperature, that was always the cause on my R56.
