OK, y'all, I've gone thru every post on this site w/ "TPMS" in it, and I still don't find what I need to do to deal w/ the TPMS values. Specifically, I'd appreciate a detailed description of what I have to do to accomplish the following:
1) Make sure that the wheels are on the "corner" that the TPMS thinks they are. I bought the vehicle w/ Pirelli's installed, and I'm not at all confident that the replacement process put the same rim back on the same "corner"; e.g., is the wheel installed on the Left Front the one the TPMS thinks is on the Left Front.
2) Retrain the TPMS to accept the wheels where they are. I do want to rotate the tires, and not have to take it into the dealer just to get this done.
3) Calibrate the TPMS for each rim. All of my tires have 32 psi at this time (I may well reduce that to 30...), but my LF indicates 28, and the other 3 show 30 psi.
It was interesting to learn that the system only updates periodically, and doesn't show an instantaneous change in pressure. Wish there were a way to force an update, tho...
TIA
