ok so i'll post up my brief findings.
you take it out, unbox it, install the software. you choose your car. Initially, off the CD it only goes up to the 2008 350z, but then it prompts you to update it. This update includes the 2010 370z (and i assume this means the 2009 as well, but specifically only the 2010 MY is listed).
you plug in the tool to the USB port and after the simple instructions, it has you go out to your car to plug it into the OBDII port and then a green light flashes. you press either the winter or summer button, and the light turns solid green. then you go back to the computer and plug it back into the USB port and it displays each sensors code in its position in the car (front left, front right etc).
IMPORTANT: this only will download codes the sensors if they are already synced to your car. If you are installing NEW sensors or sensors that have not ever been on your car before (ie if you bought someone else's wheels with TPMS) they will NOT be detected and this tool is NOT capable of activating them unless you do the following:
You would need to have the specific code from each sensor in each wheel and type it into the computer program and the follow the steps to sync them to the car. Or you can go to the dealer and have them sync the tires for you and then follow the regular steps for downloading the codes from the already synced sensors.
This tool is really useful for switching sets of wheels with TPMS. if you want to sync a NEW set of sensors, make sure you know the codes on the sensors before having the tires mounted, or else you're gonna have to either pay the dealer to sync it, or pay someone to dismount the tire or deflate it and mess around with it enough to be able to read the code off the sensor.
IN SHORT: this works, but make sure you sensors are already synced, or that you know the codes on EACH sensor in the wheels you want to add.
the rear wheels on my sport package rays are NOT synced, and therefore i need to go to the dealer and have them sync my wheels anyway.
