Interesting! What colour are your tyre valve stems?
Whatever this is. Black? Silver?

Either way, these are what came on my car when new, and I had no problem activating tire pressure and temperature readings on bimmercode. In fact, it didn't even require "expert" level coding. Quick, easy, painless.

The exact same was true on my 2016 340i msport as well. No "mechanical" work needed to be done to view pressure/temp. Just simple coding.
