Whats happening is a reversion back to the way old low tire monitoring worked, using wheel speed sensors instead of in-wheel sensors.

As far as the conspiracy is concerned, manu's didnt start using nitrogen until they found out regular air was causing sensors to fail. Dealers could either choose to use nitrogen, and profit immensely off of it by selling hyped-up performance BS, or not and make immense profits off of replacing sensors and reprogramming them. Rip off central either way you see it. Not all manu's do this, but the ones that do, shame shame.

I like the old system of using a wheel speed sensor better, like the old buick/cadillac types.
