Got a flat today - 2005 TPMS functionality?
I thought my full size spare wasn't supposed to have a tpms...
But according to the shop who swapped my tire for me (very slow leak due to an item puncturing my tire that I could hear when it hit the pavement when driving)...
Anyway the shop said that the stem appeared to have a tpms sensor on it. I really thought the system only looked at the four main tires?
Ok so now they have my original tire and will give it back to me tomorrow.. Have the full size spare with what looks to be a TPMS sensor on it...
And no TPMS light going off in my car...
So - does my 2005 G35x full size spare really have a sensor?
If it does do I have to have the car sync'ed to it? (Or do I really need to swap my original repaired tire back in... Assuming it can be repaired because it might not be able to)
Thanks guys...
