It was the Dealer's handheld computer that kept stating Wrong TPMS sensor... not necessarily that my Z would not accept the new TPMS sensors... He would put the computer at the TPMS sensor on any of the four tires, press to read the sensor, and it would ring back the "Incorrect TPMS" code. On the handheld computer, there was only one option for the 370Z and it read "370Z 2009+". So, there weren't any difference in model years to choose from on the Dealers computer....

Something's fishy in Denmark....
If you're not in a hurry, I am getting a full setup (tires/wheels/new tpms) installed monday (keeping the stockers for any unforseen problems....flats, rim damage, maybe track specific rubber). Tire guy explained the process to me but it was vague. Says he's one of the few in north Tamps with the CORRECT programmer. I'll ask as many questions as I can and will get back to you.

I feel your pain Paul.

2012 TPMS should work on a 2011 Z. Nissan changed the sensor mid-2010, so when I got my Nismo rims off of a 2009 Z, the TPMS did not register. I had to purchase a set off the forum.

Good luck!
