Tire Feathering and resetting wheel sensor position
I've noticed on my '12 M sport the front tires look to be feathering on the outside edges. I have about 11K on my car on the original Dunlops. I also noticed on my sister's '13 M sport (w/ Michelin Primacy) it looks like her tires are starting to feather as well and she had 5-6K when I looked at them.
With past vehicles I've noticed this usually corresponds to excessive toe-in on the alignment settings. I've heard the camber on the F10 isn't adjustable so this looks like a good indicator it might be a toe issue. I was talking w/ my Dad and he mentioned seeing an article saying swapping the front wheels on non-directional setups helped w/ the noise caused by the tire feathering. The noise is starting to bother me and figured I would swap the L and R fronts but I'm hesitant due to the tire sensors. Has anyone done this or had experience taking this issue to the dealer and received a solution? Is anyone aware of how to recalibrate the sensor positions on the F10? I do have the tire pressure sensors coded in idrive but has anyone done a reset before to see if the car "re-learns" the sensor position. |
