BMW X5 Tire Pressure Light
BMW X5 Tire Pressure Light service at Herb Chambers BMW Certified Preowned Medford in Medford, MA
Frequently asked questions
The tire pressure light on the BMW X5 means one or more monitored tires are at least 25 percent below the pressure shown on the driver's door-jamb placard, or that the tire-pressure monitoring system has a fault. The symbol is a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point inside. A steady light calls for tire pressure to be set at the next stop, while a light that flashes for about a minute at startup and then remains illuminated indicates a monitoring-system fault.

What the tire pressure light means on a BMW X5
The steady tire pressure warning is the horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point inside. It means one or more monitored tires are at least 25 percent below the placard pressure on the driver's door jamb. The light may appear after a cold night because tire pressure drops about one psi for every ten degrees, and an underinflated tire wears faster and runs hotter. The pressure should be set at the next stop. If the tires look fully inflated but the light remains on, the tire-pressure sensors and the system signal should be checked. A flashing light for about a minute at startup followed by a steady light means the monitoring system itself has a fault, usually because a sensor battery has run down.
What the diagnosis covers at Herb Chambers BMW Certified Preowned Medford
The tire pressure light service includes a pressure check of every monitored tire against the driver's door-jamb placard. Each tire-pressure sensor is scanned for its signal and battery status. The inspection also looks for punctures and leaking valve stems, helping distinguish a tire that needs air or repair from a sensor that needs replacement. After sensor or tire work, the system is relearned so the monitoring function can recognize the serviced components. Drivers who notice the warning after a temperature change, despite tires appearing full, or after a flashing startup sequence can schedule service at Herb Chambers BMW Certified Preowned Medford.
