Tire Pressure Monitoring System Activation?

Does this system have to be "activated"? In my menus, I can select "psi or bar" for tire pressure display, but I never get the screen with the four wheels showing all the tire pressures as described in the owner's manual.

I need to call the dealer again. I seem to remember something about "the tire pressure monitoring system doesn't work until the first 1000 miles is done..." Is this right?

Thanks for the info!

The tire pressure monitoring system is an option and won't show up on the MFD unless you ordered it. I think it said on the manual "if equipped" or something like that but I may be wrong.

I did order the system, and as far as I can tell...

it's installed. All the sport wheels have special looking valve stems. Hmmm... it's just ANOTHER thing I need the dealer to check out!

I'm taking her in Monday for a Tele Aid module service... my system's not working.
