After rotation the computer has to be reset to determine where each tire is. There is information about resetting the tires using the TPMS tool. Deflating the tires and re inflating the tires does the same thing and then resetting on the dash. Search for posts about the TPMS tool and I believe "vetterin" asked the same question just recently. Do a search on TPMS tool or rematching the tires after rotation or by "vetterin" This problem has been discussed already

 

**** dealer. Why the f---- didn't they do this? What am I paying them for -_-

 

my dealer forgot to do this too.... or they were too lazy to do it... or they didn't know how... or all three...

 

my red decal peeled off as well... i liked it better in silver so i peeled the other one off myself lol

 

I don't really use TPMS to narrow a certain tire's pressure. I set them all to be the same and rely on TPMS to tell me if one of them is significantly low. At that point, I have to get out of the car anyway, and I'll be able to visually identify the one that's low. I also keep a good tire pressure gauge in my glove compartment.

 

I don't know what it is with the low profile tires but my handheld gauge reads 3 psi higher than what the TPMS reads. It's always been that way -_-

 

Same thing happened to me, although the left tires read 36, the back right read 35, and the right front tire read 34.

Si I just went to the gas station and re-set them myself. Its doesn't really take that long to correct.

 

OP, if the dealer was dumb enough to NOT reset your TPMS I would, just for peace of mind, recheck your oil level too as some of these dealer service techs could be coming from Jiffy Lube.

 

When I drove my car I thought, good road feel, then I realized I was feeling everything I rode over. Tire pressure was @40psi thought with a W rated tire they jacked up the air pressure. Car was a little skittery at speed in turns. So I checked the door opening sticker for tire rating and pressures, dropped to 30 psi(recommended) much nicer ride and handles much better. Apparently someone forgot to correct the air before delivery. The factory leaves the pressure high to prevent flat spots if sitting for too long. Now if I can figure out how to get my car to approach the "W" speed rating I'll be flying.

 

Your car actually handles better with higher pressure in your tires. The sidewall doesn't flex as much, which makes the car more predictable and allows you to maneuver better in emergency situations. Comfort is indeed compromised, but I wouldn't go quite down to 30psi. That's a bit low for even me. I'd bump that to 32 or 34.

 

They certainly forgot to match the sensors to the tire/wheels. The TPMS sensors can also be matched to each tire/wheel position by increasing or decreasing the tire’s air pressure. Personally, I start this procedure by inflating the tires to the maximum as shown on the sidewalls. You will see why when you do the matching process. Also, if a horn chirp does not sound after 35 seconds for any of the 4 sensors, turn the ignition OFF to exit the learn mode and repeat the procedure from step 1.

1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the key to run (do not start the car).
3. Using the control on the stalk, press the menu button to get to your tire pressure readings.
4. Press clear to reset. Your horn should chirp twice.
5. You have 2 minutes to match the first tire/wheel position and 5 minutes to complete the procedure.
6. Start with the driver side (left) front tire. Deflate the pressure until the horn chirps. Yes, the pressure will get really low, which is why I inflate to max before I start. Also, it takes a few seconds for the system to catch up.
7. Move the to passenger side front tire. Repeat.
8. Move to the passenger side rear tire. Repeat.
9. Finish with the driver side rear tire. When complete, the horn will sound twice.
10. Refill your tires to whatever pressure you run (I'm staying away from this one).

One thing that I noticed happened to me twice is that when I got done, the Engine light came on. However, after driving the car, it turned itself off. Not sure what causes this. Also, I noticed that when the engine light was on, the remote start did not work. Again, it resolved itself with no issues.

Hope this helps.

 

You should make a new thread for this in the "How-to" section. Very good information for those of us who rotate our own tires and want the DIC to reflect each tire location accurately.
