Nice find. Let me know how it goes. Looking at that light for the past 2 weeks has been bothering me tremendously.

wow so many steps, it seems like its almost as much of a pain in the *** as installing new video drivers on your pc.

Uninstall drivers, restart in safemode, unistall any residual software, restart in regular windows, install new drivers, restart again, then realize you missed uninstalling a driver and repeat.

I hope this works. I think i might try and work something out with my dealer and get him to throw in infinite TPMS resets when i pay for the car, as i plan on having 2 wheel set ups.

knives and/or liquid, Im assuming you got new tpms sensors for the rs-d wheels from this thread, where did you end up buying them and part# or a link would be great. thanks.

this is a great find, liquid...i had to pay over 50 bucks to get mine reset from the dealer not to mention wait for it to get done

ya'll's TPMS doesn't just reset itself? that's strange. i've had cold mornings that i've been just barely low enough on PSI to make the light come on but i always go put air the tire subject to the warning and it goes away after driving a few miles...

I got new sensors from Tire Rack. Can't find the invoice for the part number, unfortunately.

The TPMS "should" reset itself as long as the senders have been registered with the monitor (receiver). So if you have not changed sensors or changed sensor position (kind of dumb to do) just put in the correct air pressure and you should be good to go - the TPMS clears itself. My dealer Service Manger said he would reset my system for free, but didn't think he would have too unless I put on a new set of wheels/tires with new senders. I'll be putting on a different set of wheels/tires with no TMPS senders for track use and when I revert back to the original wheels/tires/tmps senders the TMPS system should reset itself.
