TPMS Light help - New tires

tristatemkV · Dec 11, 2007

Will the tpms sensors recalibrate to new tires? I got my all seasons mounted at reputable shop and tpms light is on. Air pressure is fine. Light has been on 3 days. Do i have to go to the dealer to get this reset? The tires are same specs as oem.

And i do not have the tpms light next to my ESP above my shifter.

thanks for your help

Not sure if there is an easy way to reset the system, if there is, it'll be in the manual.

If that fails, they probably broke a sensor.

pump all the tires to 40 psi cold and drive around for an hour. also, you can check the readings with the vag-com.

if the light is on solid and youre not getting a low pressure msg on the MDF you might have a bad sensor. i have swapped my sensors from stocks to 19s back to the stock wheels and have never had to reset anything.

No i get the "tire pressure too low" warning in mdf. I will check the pressures again. but the recommended psi says 35.
