TPMS sensors - yes or no

[grfo]

Did you muck with the tire pressure? I think you get + or - 5psi from where they are set.

I checked the tire pressures, they are all less than 1 psi of each other. The sensor fault is really flaky. I can drive the car 200 miles, nothing. Next day I start it and it throws the error.

I'm still curious why they have PIDs for the spare tire if it can't monitor but 4 tires.

The sensors have to be + or _ 5lbs of what they were when they were paired.

I'm getting tire sensor faults periodically. I took it back into my tire guy, everything checks out ok. Any ideas??

We were getting a TPMS system fault that would kick in after driving for about an hour. I disconnected our add-on Bluetooth hands-free system and the TPMS fault hasn't come back. Apparently some sort of interference from the Bluetooth.
