Hi,

As detailed in my other Thread on a different subject I swapped the back wheel and the front wheel over (and back again). Ever since then I have had the warning message "Check tyres, then restart Run Flat Indicator" (as per picture). I've tried loads of things to reset it, but I just can't work out how. The manual doesn't seem to be helping either. I have checked all the pressures in the tyres now too.

Can anyone give me a step by step guide to doing this?

I am assuming you do not have individual sensors on each wheel, but the rotational check system.
IIRC turn the ignition key to second position.
Use the steering wheel buttons to scroll through the dash menus until you see the run flat/tyre pressure menu. Enter it and you will see a request to reset, yes/no.
Highlight yes and confirm.
It should now be reset.
You should do this every time you check and adjust your tyre pressures.
i.e. weekly.

Thank you. It was finding the correct menu that I was struggling with (I don't find the system that intuitive). I finally stumbled across it and your pointers helped me reset it. I won't remember where it is for next time though as it was trial and error that found it this time. :-(
