I believe this is an additional option if you want the pressure level to show.
"runflat indicator" will only be activated when there is a lose of pressure and will not show how much pressure is left. This is a standard option called "Tyre pressure sensor"
While the additional option is called "Tyre pressure monitoring sensor"

asking the same question, can I install continuous tire pressure reading?
Why I am concern about it, because I am planning to replace my run flat tires with non run flat, and I prefer to always see the pressure of the tires.

as i understand , the "tire pressure loss warning " monitors the tire rotation:
when the tire deflates, it starts turning faster, which he system picks up
the "tire pressure monitor system" has sensors on the valves, so it's a completely different system
there are aftermarket solutions - see this link ( just as an example, no idea if this one is any good)

The car is imported from canada, so this seems correct. Did you find any solution for this feature?

I'd personally like to know what would be required to upgrade. Sensors, and perhaps additional coding?

Confirmed that for some inexplicable reason, the full tire pressure presentation is not standard in Canada, except perhaps AMG versions? If I'm correct, it appears standard in the US for 2020 models.

Besides sensors in tires, code to make the car understand that a new option has become available seems obvious. But I think it also needs something to pick up what the sensors are transmitting? I could see they would save that aswell if its not in the options to begin with.
