With Carista dongle and app, you can also register new TPMS sensors on LS460. I was not able to register them with Techstream, but Carista worked really well.

Because tires get rotated, an app won't tell you which one even though each one has a unique identifier number.

I do not think an app can do that for 2007-2012 LS. You would need to lower the pressure one tire at the time and check which one does not respond. Or get a TPMS scanner like Autel TS401.

Tpms light is on and the psi values are no longer displayed. Trying to find an app where I can get access to psi from the other 3 tires then I can find the culprit.

You can clear the TPMS warning with either Techstream or Carista (with the Carista dongle). Battery disconnect might works as well. Then use either of these tools, or just the car menu, to play with the tire pressures and identify the bad sensor.

Thanks, I'll give it a try and report back.

Has anyone ever tried Carista app on 2IS?
I have noticed it doesn't support 2IS.

You should ask that in the 2IS forum, this is the 4LS area.

Where is the 2.1 upgrade at? I could not find it in the Apple app store.

I am looking at the Carista OBD adapter (Not EVO). Will I be able to view the codes from the different ECUs with this adapter? What about ELM?
