sales person showed me how to do it yesterday I havent been able to do it again but I thought it was pretty cool, I think it has something to do with the run flats lol
I just got the car yesterday and I can tell its going to take me a while to get used to all the features and learn how to use the computer. As far as comparison to the S2000. kind of hard to compare. I loved driving a convertable and will def. own another in my future. but Im 6'3 and the S was a tight fit. The S2000 is a very close, tight, stiff car. the shifter took a flick of the wrist to shift, I had coilovers and sways and the car had zero body roll and handeled like it was on rails. I had everything comptech made for it besides the Super Charger and the car sounded and performed very well. compared to the BMW the S2000 was very simplistic. It was a pure sports car with no sound deadining material between the tranny and interior so I heard every little thing the diff and tranny were doing and the coilovers made for a rough ride. it was flashy, loud, and moderatly fast. Girls loved it, I loved it, but when I found out I couldnt even fit my golf clubs in the trunk I decided she had to go. Im starting my new career in august and decided I had to grow up in a sense and the 335 seemed like a natural choice since I had about fallen out of my chair when I first learned that BMW was making a production inline 6 TT. |

Um pretty sure you can set a shortcut button on the steering wheel to take you directly to the TPM screen...
But no MANIPULATION, only MONITORING. I think the OP is confusing his new E90 with a POS Hummer. Loving the silver though, looks great.

Monitor is easy, it's the manipulate part that's funny.

Best of luck with your new ride! Let him feel a little dominance over his car and let him think he can manipulate the tire pressure.....we married guys know lots about manipulation....

Congrats and welcome aboard, Curt. I recently got one too, May 07. I also have the sports pkg but no premium pkg. I too am curious about the "manipulating" part...must be a miscomms between you and the sales guy or maybe he/she's pulling a fast one on you. But I do love how the the car's cruise control setup...pretty cool and different from the Japanese cars. (had an old Acura Legend)
A couple of pics for your viewing... Cheers! |
