Re: air pressure sensor (racer959)
No... it is not true. All you need is a heavy duty magnet. Go into your DIC(driver info computer) and get it into a FOB training mode. If you skip the key fob training, the next is to learn the tire sensors. You would start with the left front. Put the magnet on or next to the valve. Your car will honk once it has programmed the tire sensor. Then move to the next tire and do the same thing. Repeat the steps for the rest of the tires and your wheel sensors will be programmed.
Good luck

Z06's don't come with TPS's. If you are adding TPS's to your Z06's wheels then you will have to go to the dealer to have them turned on. Then you can program them yourself.

Re: air pressure sensor (ROCKnROLL)
ROCKnROLL, are you sure ZO6's have no tire pressure sensors? I'm replacing my stock wheels to CCW wheels and I was going to buy sensors for the new wheels ( thinking they have sensors) and leave the stock ones alone, I do not want to put sensors if the stock ones do not have them, can somebody else help also, thanks :confused:

Z06's do not come from the factory with TPS's.
If you bought the Z used it's possible the previous owner had the sensors installed. If you bought it new they're not there.
If you're getting tire pressure readings on the DIC then you do indeed have sensors but they were installed after the car was purchased.
