[quote=""gmc15""][quote=""NewX5""][quote=""gmc15""]Found it :yeah: It was under the rear of the passenger seat tucked under one of the car mats. The bloke at the garage found the power supply under the rear seat and traced the wires to the passenger seat area. It was only when he moved the seat as far forward as it would go that he found the player :)

Great news - Finally did it cost you anything to find?[/quote]


No, the garage where I bought the car from were very good and did all the searching for me. They just need to get the 'TYRE PRESSURE INACTIVE' message sorted now. They had a go at resetting it and resetting the tyre pressures but on my way home the message came up again. I phoned the garage and he said just to bring the car back and he would sort it :)

My tyre pressure inactive is cos my wheels haven't got the sensors fitted. Left the sensors on the old wheels when I flogged them.

There are two different tyre pressure indicator systems, apparently - one with sensors and one that works on the rolling diameter, I think the 4.6 had the sensors, but newer models had the rolling diameter system.
Also, a similar message was triggered by a faulty battery. As always, no simple answer to an X5 glitch :(

The 4.6 has a sensor in each wheel, the valve attaches to this, the other sensor system uses the abs system to monitor the wheel speed
