Check all tire pressure. Did you just swap tires out or something? If that were the case they have to be reprogrammed. Sensors do go bad, but it takes a while. Not sure if you can disable the tpms, but thats not such a good idea. I would guess you can, but why?

If it is the sensor, it will cost about $50. Go to a tire store and have them first try and reprogram the sensors. It's takes about a minute to do all 4 tires with a hand held device. Otherwise the active handling system will be affected if you do not correct the problem.

Actually, you can't - in a C6 (don't know what the OP drives)
