How do I properly inflate the tires of my BMW X3?

As a BMW X3 owner, it's important to regularly check and maintain the tire pressure of your vehicle. This not only ensures proper handling and performance, but also increases the lifespan of your tires. But how do you properly inflate the tires of your BMW X3?

First, check the recommended tire pressure for your BMW X3, which can be found in your owner's manual or inside the driver's side door jamb. Use a high-quality tire pressure gauge to accurately measure the pressure levels.

When inflating the tires, make sure the valve stem is free from dirt or debris. Use a tire pump or air compressor with a built-in pressure gauge to add air to the tires. It's important to add air in small increments and check the pressure levels frequently, as overinflating can be just as damaging as underinflating.

If your BMW X3 comes with a tire pressure monitoring system, make sure to reset it after adding air to the tires. This will ensure accurate readings and proper functioning of the system.
