I have a 2025 R12 nineT (R12S, actually) that unfortunately did not come equipped with the tire pressure monitor (TPM) option. I would therefore like to do a retrofit to add it.
As I understand things, late-model BMWs now include the TPM functionality within the XSLZ03 controller. A GS-911 autoscan shows that my bike indeed has such a controller.
It was my hope that the late-model bikes have everything needed to enable TPM except for the tire pressure sensors themselves. Alas, that seems to not be the case...
I procured the appropriate sensors (the LDL-manufactured units that can speak to the XSLZ03) and a wake-up tool to activate them. If I attempt to use GS-911 to learn the new sensors via the XSLZ03 service functions menu, it appears that a signal is being received from the sensors, but GS-911 says 'no response from the vehicle'. In speaking with my BMW dealer, I'm told the following: "the bike has to be programmed at a dealership to change the vehicle order so the bike knows it has them and reads them". Them is of course referring to the TPM sensors.
Has anyone found a workaround? Is there a workaround? I could simply take the bike in to the dealer, but I was hoping GS-911 would enable me to handle this myself. Thanks in advance for any insight.
