Default Re: Quick tire question

I give the front tires six to nine months of use, depending on our weather (we’re still in the 90’s & humid). When I called Discount Tires, I said that I wanted to buy new sensors, cloned from the old ones. The guy on the phone paused then said that they have replacement sensors in stock ($60 each). When I picked up the car, I was given the usual “drive around until the system recognizes them or bring it back if it doesn’t work” speech. When it didn’t, another guy showed me his scan tool showing that it needed to be done by a dealer. The nearest dealer service person paused and said that they were willing to look at it... I didn’t get a good feeling from them.

I have a couple of shops that we use that I’m going to call to see if they have the tools to reset the system.

If anyone doing the Dragon run has the tools, I’d rather pay them to do it... just saying.
