Tire Shops That Reflash TPMS

Anyone have experience at a shop that can add new TPMS sensor to ECU - local places won’t be able to they say. Dealer wants $140.

 

I would just call tire shops in the area see if they can and what the pricing is, I think many major shops or even smaller shops can do it now, then it depends on price

 

I used Carista when i added new TPM's

 

Discount Tire will do it. Not sure if they even check, but I went there recently and didn't ask for a receipt or look me up in their system, they just brought the scanner tool to my truck and did it... no questions asked.

 

Which location - one in Fullerton hung up on me when I asked haha

 

My tire shop didn't know how to do it. They broke one of my sensors during last tire change and didn't tell me. I saw the new different valve stem and took it back to have it reset. The moron couldn't figure out the computer and I lost patience.

I have techstream, so I just went home and did it myself.

 

I bought one of these, you need to know the TPMS IDs from your sensors, all this thing does is re-write the IDs that you tell it to the ECU. I can confirm it works perfectly for my winter/summer swaps on both my 2109 Tacoma and wife’s 2014 Sienna.

Are you saying a $30 ODB dongle does this!

 

Pricing is they won’t do it and / or want to only do it if I buy $90 a piece sensors from their inventory

I wanted to have it done before a road trip tomorrow but looks like I’ll just deal with it until a tool comes in that I can do it with. This is insane. Lol

Go to the Firestone in Downey.
Pretty sure they can take care of it.

You just have to make sure you have the codes off each TPM before installing them to the wheels.

 

Just ask around local. I found a shop here in Burbank down the street and handled it in less than an hour. Aftermarket tpms sensors can be an issue with some machines is what the guy was saying when I had mine done, but IDK.

 

Guys I called almost every major tire shop around! Even a shop that mounted beadlocks for my first gen. At this rate it’ll be easier just to get a TPMS dongle or I’ll look into my CarDoc Bluetooth dongle to see if there’s an upgraded app I can pay for for just that and just be paying for the temporary upgrade. The light doesn’t bother me so much except that my wife may be learning how to drive a manual on it and I’d like to have it working for that reason.
