    Don't you just hit the reset button and let they system recalibrate?

    The sensor has no way of knowing where it's at on the vehicle. It only knows if the air pressure is above a certain value. Some vehicles have the capability to tell you which tire is low, but that is in the TPMS ECU. So when you rotate the tire to a different location on the car, you have to reprogram the ECU to tell it where you moved it to.

    Or you can rotate the tires and not the rims so the sensors stay put. That would explain the crazy charge.

    I wouldn't call 5 bucks (20 if its per tire) a crazy charge. Get one programmed at a dealership once. There's probably 3 times the work in breaking down tires just to move them onto different wheels where the reprogram only takes a few minutes.

    Sam's still does it for free as part of buying tires from them. Huge motivator right there.

    All that for about $3,000 USD. Not surprised though as most Free Staters that I met when I lived in South Africa were certified kooks. Dutch hard liners that missed the old orange policies of brutal treatment towards the indigenous.

    Wait until you have to feed a teenager. Holy crap, they can put away groceries. I never appreciated how my mother kept me fed until I had one.

    If you ever get tires or a battery there, it's best to get it on sale. Otherwise they aren't that much different than anyone else. Their sales can be really good, though. I'm considering Discount Tire for my next set (when these Toyos finally wear out) because Sam's is really proud of their KO2s.

    Try Amazon for tires too. I got Duratacs for $168 a piece, Prime shipping. C load 265/75-16. They're $196 now though which is the same as Discount. So, like anything else it's hit or miss.

    Mid-to-late 2000's GM's were a pain in the butt for this. They'd flash on the dash and tell you which tire was low, which was convenient, but calibrating them was a real pain. You'd have to get the vehicle into 'learn' mode by applying the parking brake and holding the 'lock' and 'unlock' buttons on the key fob until the horn beeped twice. The vehicle would illuminate the turn signal light on the corner that was in learn mode (started at Driver's front). Then you'd let air out of the tire until the vehicle noticed the pressure difference and it would beep the horn once to let you know that it had logged the sensor's position. Then the Passenger front turn signal would light up, and you'd repeat the process all the way around the vehicle. When it had learned the last sensor it'd beep once to let you know that it had logged the sensor, then twice more to let you know that the new locations had been stored in the computer. THEN you had to go around and top the air pressures off again.

    The advantage was that if you rotated your own tires you could do the relearn procedure yourself in the driveway, without buying any specialized tools/magnets. The downside was that it was time-consuming, which during the busy season was a real pain.
