Cool Need to program tpms.

Hey guys I called Mcgrath Lexus in Chicago & they are charging me $130.00 to program my tpms on my new wheels. Is there any other place that charge lower that you guys know of please? Or do I just have to deal with it & pay it & get it over with? Thanks guys for your help again.

Only places that can do this are your dealer and I confirmed that Discount Tire can also do it for FREE. I would go to these 2 places first. The Lexus dealer has always done mine as a courtesy service in the past but I also know the owner. I think you got the rims/tires from Discount so just have them take care of it

Cool

Thanks guys for your help. I went to a toyota dealership by my house & they it for me. It was pretty cool how they did it. They charged me $100.00 to do it which only took them about an half an hour, but I guess we all have to make some money some how, lol.

I've tried to get the discount tire on 2 separate occasions to program the tpms sensors on my summer wheels. No luck.. I ran the whole summer with that damn Alert in the dash.

Back to stock as of Wednesday =(

Yea Discount is a NO go...

I had the system trip after 1 month...went back last week and it just went off again. Its not holding the codes for some reason.

I suggest to go to the dealer and have it done.
