Engine problem: lci m2

So about 2 weeks ago I noticed upon cold start, the revs would drop after about 2 seconds (which is Normal) but it dropped significantly more then usual. Like it almost stalled. Today I went to start it up and it did stall. Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen and what is likely the cause ? I didn't have any engine lights or anything on either. On a side note, how do I get the tire pressures ? All it shows is green lights on all 4 corners. Thanks!

Go for a drive, get the oil warm, floor it in fifth gear from 1500rpm to redline a couple times. Report back. Sounds like adaptations to me.

~5,000mi - no issues like you describe.

As far as tire pressure goes, I check manually as I have found the values reported by the TPMS to be a little off from what I get for cold values.

I think Canadian LCIs do not have TPMS, it will never tell you pressures or temps. It uses wheel rotation sensors for detecting flats.

I think only the Canadian M2Cs have started to have TPMS. Early runflat BMWs may have had TPMS but for the longest time we've not had TPMS in Canada, only the latest generations have started introducing TPMS (again?) to Canada.
