Question Tire pressure system.

I've read the manual cover to cover, literally. I know i could or should be able to see my tire pressure on the MFD. I have reactivated it lots of times, and it says active, but even after driving for an hour i can't see my tire pressures, i've tried several times. Any help would be appreciated. one time i had a problem with my tire pressure monitoring system, i hope the dealer didn't delete that feature.

Uhhh, I believe LDH is correct, US cars (at least '06s) do not have "Advanced TPMS". US cars have a "Run Flat Indicator" which only gives warning of discrepancies, not actual air pressures.

The owners manual shows every options available on the car, it does not mean that the specific car has that option!! You get what you pay for!! I am not saying that YOU dont have this option!!!!

i do it's standard on all ML500's, sorry about the rude answers, but it's one of the features i loved about this car, and my luck it either doesn't work or is halfass. Nice wheels by the way Eagle56!

some ml's have it some dont. to know for sure if you the TPM look at your wheels and tell us if you have metal valve stems. if you do, you have TPM, if you have rubber valve stems, you have run flat.
