oh thats the TPM going off, potential flat tire??? check tire pressures, one has changed from the other three and is setting off the alert in your car... also when done fillng air, scroll through and click reset on it... but check out the manual it will tell you how to do that... not sure if you have idrive or not...

hope that helps!

Thanks for the help guys. I bought the car at carmax and it didn't have a owners manual. Ill check to see if I can order one but someone mentioned tire pressure. I filled the tires all the same pressure but it still is there....

That is the tyre pressure warning light, pls check the tyre and I think one of them is either uneven or leaking ^ ^

You really need a manual...

The car has run flat tires so there is a pressure monitoring system in place. When you get notified of low pressure, you need to fix the cause, reinflate the tire and then reset the tire pressure monitoring system.

read the link i gave you... you can download the manual... simply goto kinko's and just print it out... you dont need to buy one... also once you fill up the air you need to reset the monitor... then i believe the sign will go. Also what did you fill your tires to? front and rears are different PSI... front should be like 36 and rear should be 40 i think... if you went 36 all around then your tires are not properly inflated...

there are too many unknowns here...

year
make
2 door/4door
2 wheel or x-drive
auto or manual
sport or non sport...?? we cant help unless you give us the specs... answewr those questions and i'll reply with the amount assuming you cant open .PDF to the first link i sent you.

It is a 2008 335 xi. 4 doors ad manual. non sport. I believe all tires are filled to 40. I will check out the manual. Can someone tell me a easy way to reset the system?

you need to download the manual. resetting the system depends on if you have idrive or not. I-drive, simply go to the main menu, cycle through the sub-menus for car info, tires. TPM menu has a reset option... then you just drive a mile or so and will reset
