Tyre Pressure Monitoring System

[R36 Dreamer]

Hi all,

I am confused by the above system in my R36.

In my MkV GTI the system would notify me that a tyre has low pressure.

I was told by the dealer that the system in the R36 is more advanced in some way, but cannot work out how it works.

Obviously this is a good thing in that I have not had a flat tyre (check pressure monthly), however I would like to know how it works.

Has anyone else had the system activate - does it tell you which tyre is deflating? I press the button and understand you can set the system for partial or full load (I leave it on partial), but any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I have done a google search to no avail.

Look forward to a response.

On my Passat it just says to check your tyres. It does not tell you which one is actually low.

I think that means you have Low Pressure Indicator. Only the R and the Highline have the TPMS - I assume they are slightly different, but dont know how!

Any responses appreciated.
