I never knew this. Funny thing...... after reading this thread, I went out to check my cars. My X5, only a month old, from the factory came with the yellow dot NOT aligned with the valve stem. My 911, only a week newer, DOES have the yellow dot aligned with the valve stem.
Why would BMW not know this if indeed it is fact?
