Tire pressure sensor switch.

[Jonathong]

I just got a set of buddyclub p1s for my 2013 fb6 and was wondering, if the shop just switch's over the sensors to the new wheels do I need to reprogram or do anything like that to the sensors with then being on the new wheels? Or will I have to go to the dealer to get the sensors reprogrammed? If so how Mich is usually the rate they charge to do something like that? Many thanks in advance.

Also the new rims are the exact same specs as the stock OEM si wheels 17x7 +45 and I do plan to reuse the Michelin summer tires as they are still brand new.

You shouldn't have to do anything but air up the tires and drive a little bit. Some places charge a few dollars per sensor to move them to the new wheels. They also usually have a disclaimer that if a sensor breaks, they are not responsible. It happens from time to time especially if the sensors are old and corroded. However, with your car being fairly new I don't think they should have any issues. Take some pics when you get them mounted and show us how it looks!

They are compatible, but you'll have to get them programmed at a dealership to work with your car. Your ecu only holds 1 set of wheel sensor data. If you swap to new wheels with different sensors, you'll get a tpms error until they reprogram them.
