Default 2008 C6 TPMS Questions

Hey y’all,

I have a 2008 C6 Z06 and I’m looking to replace the TPMS sensors. I saw that the older ones require a tool to program them and the 2010 and up ones don’t. Can I use a 2010 TPMS sensor in my 08? Anyone know if it is compatible or I need to get the 08 version.

You need to use the 2008 sensors! I got my sensors for my 2008 from TPMS which is in California and they are already programmed to your vehicle,but when installed you have to reset which sensor is where it is....Discount tire did my for no charge,only takes a few minutes.
