TPMS Reset
I just received my new wheel/tire combination and have mounted the new wheels to my 2013 Grand Sport. All tires have the right air pressure but two of the new sensors are showing the wrong pressure and are telling me to add air. Other two wheels show the correct air pressure. Anyone have any info on how or what needs to be done to reset the two showing the wrong pressure? Wheels, tires and sensors are all new as I bought the entire wheel package and had them shipped to the house. Do I need to see the dealer to program them? Thanks

You can take them to a tire dealer and they may be able to relearn them to the car . If not then you will have to go to dealer for them to relearn them, Im dealing with this now the tire shop couldn't get mine to relearn. Now a trip to the dealer of course when it gets nicer out.

Just buy the TPMS reset tool off eBay for $15. I’ve got the orange one and works perfectly. Takes all of 30 seconds to reset the TPMS.

You can buy the TPMS reset tool from Amazon, eBay or AliExpress for about $20. I bought mine from AliExpress. Make sure you have the right TPMS sensors since they are different from 05-08 from 09-13. Also avoid the Universal Clone type TPMS sensors in favor of OEM since they are prone to adaptability issues.

Good info guys off to ebay I go. Funny I was told by the tire dealer I would have to go to the dealer since they couldn't do it. Now I know better.
Thanks again for the info.
