Simple newbie question :

When I rotate my tires, will that require a TPMS reset ?

 

no, i just rotated mine yesterday and it was fine

 

I have seen other posts indicating it will require a reset. Maybe it varies?

 

Mine tells me to, but I usually have them balanced also.

 

Maybe... But it's not something that requires a trip to the dealer. It's a simple DIY, push the button on the turn signal operation...

 

i do a reset, but i run different pressure front vs rear

how often are you rotating them? with other auto's i was every other oil change (every 6-7000) but since now its every 10,000 miles for that then when?????? every 5,000?

 

i rotate at 4k miles, when i change oil/filter

Scott, aren't you on synthetic oil?

 

yes, but i think 8k miles is too long for a turbo engine to run the oil

i got the extended maintenance, so mini does an oil/filter change every 8k and i do an oil/filter change when the OBC counts down 1/2 way, ie to 4k miles

oil is cheap ... engines are expensive

i was told 10k for oil for my gen 1 base, Brandon was confident that it was not needed sooner.


ooooh! i made it to 1st gear!!!! :D

 

maybe in a base model, but I agree that 10k oil changes are bad business, esp as engines get older. I'm shooting for every 4-5k miles.
