I have a 2024 440 MSport so model G22 (I think).

I keep getting tyre pressure warnings and the car’s systems seem to be wrong. I’ve inflated all 4 tyres to the recommended pressure. I’ve checked the accuracy using 3 separate compressors but I’m still showing the readings as below. Is this something I can correct or do I need to book the car into BMW?

Any help appreciated.

After you have set the pressures to the correct value you probably need to go into a tyre settings menu and do a calibration.

Done that, it’s still showing incorrect pressures. Worked like that on older models.

Compressors do vary. Really needs checking with a tyre pressure gauge. My compressor, tyre gauge and tpms never align.

If you increase the pressures temporarily to 3 bar, does the display change? If not, you have a communication error. You may also need to drive the car at least 5 miles for the sensors to reset.

Thanks, I’ll try that.

drive it after the re calibration

It needs to ' see ' rotation for a few miles

This, reset after driving.

As others have said; into iDrive, reset tyre pressures and then drive the car, it'll go from 0 to 100% whilst you're driving and that should be it done

FWIW I use this when I check tyre pressures on both my E39 and our F31: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Draper-69924-Pressure-Gau...

It's hell of a lot more accurate compared to my Ryobi cordless tyre inflator; and my RING tyre inflator

When I look at the tyre pressures on the F31s iDrive they're all different; even though the Draper tyre pressure gauge says that the fronts are the same, and the rears are the same etc

Assuming it works like an F30/1.
I find my F30 starts off with one side different to the other (which side depends on whether the sun is shining or it's cold) but after 20 miles the on screen pressures show both sides the same. Also the screen shows thaat WARMED setting as the same as the COLD tyre gauge setting from a hand gauge. My old Halfords digital hand gauge reads the same as my new TireTek analogue hand gauge.
