To reset the TPMS, turn the ignition to the "on" position without starting the engine. Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the TPMS indicator light blinks three times, then release the button. Drive the vehicle for a few minutes to allow the system to recalibrate.
The recommended engine oil for the 2010 BMW Z4 sDrive30i Roadster is BMW Longlife-01 fully synthetic oil with a viscosity rating of SAE 5W-30. Always check your owner's manual for any updates or changes.

Common causes for rough idle include dirty or faulty mass airflow sensors, worn spark plugs, vacuum leaks, or a malfunctioning idle control valve. A diagnostic check can help pinpoint the exact issue.
To replace the cabin air filter, locate the filter housing under the dashboard on the passenger side. Remove the screws or clips holding the cover, take out the old filter, and insert the new filter in the same orientation. Replace the cover securely.
Headlight fogging is often caused by moisture accumulation. Check for any cracks or damaged seals, and ensure the venting system is clear. If the problem persists, consider using a silica gel pack inside the housing to absorb moisture.
It is recommended to change the brake fluid every two years or 30,000 miles, whichever comes first. Regular changes help maintain optimal braking performance and prevent moisture contamination.
To jump-start, connect the positive cable to the positive terminal of the dead battery, and the other end to the positive terminal of the donor battery. Attach the negative cable to the negative terminal of the donor battery, and the other end to an unpainted metal surface on the engine block of the dead car. Start the donor vehicle, then the Z4.
Ensure the engine is cool before checking the coolant. Open the hood and locate the coolant reservoir. Check the level against the markings and add BMW-approved coolant if necessary. Do not overfill.
The "Service Engine Soon" light can be triggered by various issues such as a loose gas cap, faulty oxygen sensors, or emission system problems. A diagnostic scan tool can help identify the specific cause.
