Resetting TMPS - removing previously stored

Hi All, Does anybody know how to remove or completely reset the tpms memory? I'm at my 4th tmps on the car and the error keeps popping up that tpms malfunction and then it goes away after a couple of mins of driving. This happens everytime I start the car and drive off, any time of the day.

I read somewhere the car can only store 3 tmps info. I might need to clear one or all previously stored TMPS information. My TMPS is OEM and I know it works cuz the light turns off after a few minutes of driving and the display says TMP active without any manual intervention.

Any help will be gladly appreciated.

Thanks!

Did you reset the TPMS when you changed the tires?

Yes and multiple times thereafter and same results. I have a feeling that my tpms is dying and might need replacement.

Loose connection / failing signal at the receiver maybe?

I know for the 2014 F10 M-sport, the central receiver is right behind the plastic diffuser between the exhaust tips.

Pre LCI-F10 models each transmitted directly from the tire sensor to a receiver in the fender lining. LCI models changed that (and frequency) to a central receiver.
