I had a tire pressure warning come up on screen during the drive yesterday but the on board computer said I can resume the drive as the car is equipped with run-flat tires.
Well, it turns out that these Pirelli tires are not run flats and the pressure dropped quickly and below critical. The car has no spare tire, no tire-puncture fix solutions in place, no high-jack or even a pump included.
The car is the “Ultimate pack”… Does this sound normal?
Bought the car new from BMW.
You are right in the regard that the screen shouldn’t tell you that they are run flats, if they aren’t. That is a serious safety flaw.
However as a responsible driver you should always know yourself wether you have run flats or not.
The car should 100% have a tire repair kit. Are you sure you didn’t miss anything?
