Your '06 does not use sensors or anything in the wheels.
Odd, my 06 330i must be unique as I have TPMS.

understand that having aftermarket wheels/tires will not void your "warranty" unless it screws something up with the braking system and/or steering. in the event of such a situation, BMW, under law, MUST prove that aftermarket wheels/tires were the sole cause of the problem, otherwise they cannot legally null your warranty.

You are in Canada and you have sensors in the wheels? From the factory? Are you sure?

All Canadian vehicles that have TPMS use the indirect method, where the rolling diameter is what triggers an alert - your wheels won't have sensors built in unless you added them.

I recently bought 4 dunlop winter sport 3d but on stock sizes for my 325xi.(205/55/r16) I plan though to have them installed at the dealership.
Did I say anything about roadside assistance?

Run flat tires replaced with Non Run Flat, now new error codes pop up

I did a quick search, but couldn't find the specific answer I'm looking for so I apologize in advance if this has been beaten to death or posted a million times.

So a couple days ago I replaced my bald, worn out Bridgestone Potenza RE050A runflats with some non-runflat Sumitomo's. Everything was fine for about a day, no lights, no errors, nothing. Then the next morning, about halfway to work, I got a few different yellow notification errors, the DSC turned off, and the "brake" light illuminated yellow.

Did some research on here and found their definitions. They are:

CC-24 = DSC Failed. DBC failed. No additional assistance when braking.
CC-35 = DSC Failed. Restricted driving stability when accelerating and cornering.
CC-354 = Start off Assistance inactive. Vehicle may roll backwards.
CC-50 = Tire Failure Indicator Failed. Tire Failure cannot be detected.


So I took it back to BigBrand, where I had the tires installed, and they called the dealership (Steve Thomas, Camarillo CA, where I get all the service done and the car is under warranty with) and they told me they couldn't "reset it" and that I could take it to the dealership but that I would have to pay for them to "reset the wheel speed sensor." After they found out I switched from run flat tires, they said that this was the cause of my problems.

That is obviously false, as the car will intermitantly start without any of those error codes. Then after a while it will fail and all of those codes will come back.

So my questions are:
Can I reset this myself somehow?
Are E90 325's capable of running non-runflats? Hopefully this is as ridiculous a question as it sounds...
Does running non-runflat tires void the warranty?

Thanks for the information guys
All the errors indicated, it is Steering Wheel Sensor failed, see this link to fix, just clean it.

Does that mean if you buy a new set of tires that have measurements different in any way from the stock tires, you're going to have problems? I'm thinking of replacing my stock 16 inch wheels (2009 328i) with 18 inch OEM wheels. Will I have any issues? Will the computer on the car raise red flags and act up?

You need the correct TPMS, and the correct-sized tires with the same diameter/circumferences as the originals to avoid problems.

Thanks. In other words, if I have stock 205/55R16 tires, I'll run into trouble if I replace them with 225/40R18 tires? The latter are tires that are applied by BMW on a 2009 335i, I believe. I have a 2009 328i.

Sorry if this is a stupid question. I just figured people upsize wheels al the time, and I never knew it was such an issue.

You shouldn't have trouble - if you go to tirerack.com and use the tire size calculator you'll find that 225/40R18 and 205/55R16 have the same circumference (at least within 1%.) It's when you have a non-matching set that you have problems.
