TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system) warning light. Check for a flat or low air pressure in one of the tires.

Once your sure the tires are fine, press it again when going down the road and it should reset it and clear the light.

No, not the s/r button. There is a dash button (!) near the DSC button. Once you know the air pressures are correct, press that button and hold it in for ~5 seconds. Then drive off, and the light should go out within a couple of hundred feet or so.

There should also be instructions on how to reset the TMPS on the inside "well" of the drivers door on the sticker that tells you tire pressure information.

Mines came on today because I have a nail in the tire. After adding some air, the light went away. BMW advised to hold the tpms button near the seat warmer down and drive off. It should go away.

What about the nail? The system warned you, and you are trying to do a work around? Or did I miss something?
