Exactly what model? You have to set the tire pressures and then either drive the car (if ABS-type TPMS) and reset the TPMS display or reset the tire pressure monitoring system memory through the MMI.
Read your owners manual, I can't give you more specifics without a car year and model.

2016 Volkswagen Golf sprotswagen tpms light keeps coming back on. I check all the tire pressure and ok, reset the tpms and a few days later it’s back

This tpms system is based on the rolling circumference of the wheel.
please check the tyres are all the same size(check the trye wall) and an over worn tyre can give a false flat tyre.
that would be the easy fix.fingers crossed.

I have a 2007 mini cooper. Tyre pressure warning came on a while back and I was able to reset successfully. Same thing happened again 2 days ago. Checked all tyrea, pressures are correct. Tried reset, not...

Get the pressure sensors checked. Does it show you which tyre? If so you could swop it with 1 from a tyre which doesn't show a fault and see if the issue moves with it. If it doesn't move, then is coud be a cabling issue, caught white, short or similar.

My tire pressure warning light is on saying underinflated pressure although I checked the tiresand the pressure and they were OK. The warning light remains on. How do I fix this?

Had the same problem with my 2006 passat, there is a tyre pressure button on the lower central console on the drivers side of the gearstick, make sure your tyres are at the correct pressure first, then with the engine running press in this button and hold it in for about 10 seconds, this will reset the tyre pressure warning to the pressure that is currently in the tyres

Engine oil and tyre pressures

use 10W30W, that is the heaviest oil this engine needs, thicker oils can damage the bearings due to oil starvation, as far as tire pressure goes 30- 32 PSI is best for this little car.

Just under handbrake there a button it showing on dashboard when turn key off brake light stay on

This is probably the run flat tyre sensor telling you that one of the tyres is down. Check the pressure on all 4 tyres, and get them all to the proper pressure. The button under the handbrake is a reset button for the run flat tyre sensor. With the engine off, hold the button in and keep it held in, start the car up, keep the button in until the light goes off. If it doesnt go off, just wait 10 or 15 seconds, then let go of the button. The warning light should go out. If this happens again, check your tyres again as you may have a puncture that you don't know about.

Dash warning light has come up on my vw eos, looks kinda like a horsehoe with an exclamation mark, any ideas?

if yellow this is most likely your tyre inflation indicator warning.
this means that one or more of your tyres has defated or inflated outside expected limits (do not worry)
1. check your tyre pressures are correct.
2. switch on the engine and let light come on.
3. press and hold the reset button with the same horseshoe icon which is situated near your gear lever in the middle console after several seconds the light should go and and your tyre pressure warning system is reset and ready for any change in prssure. if this does not work consult your nearest certified VW dealer they will be happy to assist.

Run flat tyre warning light is on i have checked tyre pressure

This will only come on when a tyre has dropped in pressure (not spare). It work on the principle that a tyre with less air has a smaller rolling circumference and therefore a different wheel speed. This is then monitored against other signals from other wheels and determined that a loss in pressure has occured.

If all tyre pressures seem ok, there could be a chance of a small unoticeable leak and would require a bath test. This is when the tyre is dipped in water and bubbles would appear where the puncture is.

Ultimately the system may just need to be reset, or has incorrectly been reset from a tyre change. For this you just press and hold the TPC button (located on the centre console above the gearstick - looks like a flat tyre with an exclamation) turn on the ignition to position 2 and the light will come on re then yellow,go out, come back on yellow. When it comes back on yellow it re-initializing the system. You can let go of the button and after 20 odd seconds the light will go out for the final time, completing the reset.

If the light continues to come on after the reset then you definitely have a puncture somewhere!

Hope this helps!
