TPMS Reset Failure
I took my 2012 X5M to a tire shop to get new tires mounted as the original tires had worn out. The TPMS was working fine when I took it in. After getting the car back I am unable to get the TPMS reset. The shop is unable to find the proble. They get two error codes 604E and 6059. None of these give any specifics as to what the solution could be. I have tried a lot of searching. MDriving the car about 20 miles get an error message "TPMS Monitor Failure " message but no specifics. Any advice as to what to do next? I could take it to the dealer, but would like to have the tire shop get this fixed.

Don't let the tire shop get off so easily. TPMS aren't new technology anymore, so most tire shops should be able to handle repair/replacement. Insist they fix it or get them to pay for your visit to the stealership.

If they replaced the TPMS units on your M they may have used the wrong sensors. Went through the exact same scenario this last spring with my 2011 X5M and it turned out the tire shop used the wrong TPMS version. Around October of 2010 BMW went from TPMS V1 to V2. On mine, once they swapped out for the older version (04/10 build date) and the sensors reset on the first try and worked perfectly.
If you take it to the stealer they will likely charge you around $200 because they have to remove the tires to verify TPMS version (mine did). If you have them replace the sensors, BMW while hit you for over $800 just for the sensors. Highly recommended to get the tire shop to fix the issue they obviously created.

I asked if they had done anything to the sensors and the answer was no. I had the old vs. new TMPS sensor issue with the used set I bought for my winter wheels. Ended up getting new sensors from the dealer which involved taking the tires off. Everything synced up right away and when I pu the summer wheels back on everything worked great. Seems to me that there should be a way to test a TMPS sensor without taking the tire off. That way I would at least know that they are all good, or identify one that the installer may have damaged.
