    Guys this is my line of work, you'll find that what you have isn't really TPMS it's a software add on which uses the ABS ring to check every tyre revolves as it should so there is no actual 'pressure' sensor. This style is called indirect as opposed to direct which have actual sensors inside the wheel. Indirect systems are slow and unreliable but also the cheapest option for manufacturers. You can buy aftermarket TPMS kits and use these instead, all be it not on the MMI.

    Yep - that's why many have enabled it for free just by changing a code with VCDS on the ABS control module.
