winter wheels
i've been running a set of winter tires/wheels for the last two winters. I have a set of aftermarket rims without tpms. I've removed the cluster and put a piece of black tape on the light, but there is still a warning message in the info display that you have to reset every time you start the car. It also returns every time the info display gives some other warning message, necessitating another 3 second hold of the button every time that happens. It can get quite tedious.
I spoke to my local dealer for an estimate to reprogram for new wheels. Said it was approx $30 to hook up the laptop and introduce the new sensors to the computer. Also said I would need to have this done with each wheel change as the system can only register a max of 5 sensors at a time. I'm not planning on wasting my cash in this way so will not even have the sensors installed. Only consequence will be the warning light.
