Antennas sticking outa my tires!
I they are OEM style but not OEM. I see this on Amazon as well, but if you read the feedback people say they are clearly not OEM once they receive them and they come in generic bags. Its a crap shoot. I do believe that even some of the aftermarket ones are just as good or better than OEM.. but...- Jolly Roger

Antennas sticking outa my tires!
HAHA, yeah I saw that the jeep guys were downloading some "off-road" Flashcal file that completely deleted the TPM system. I couldn't find the download online but I think it may be available when you plug in your Flashcal and update the firmware version. Pretty sure they have a page that...- Jolly Roger

Antennas sticking outa my tires!
Many people complain about getting old stock sensors installed and in result, having to change them soon after. But is this really a thing? This poses many question as well, do non-sleep sensors transmit the entire time while being stored or warehoused? or do they have to be "woke" with a magnet...- Jolly Roger

Antennas sticking outa my tires!
Hey James :happy160: Most tire shops are using the VDO SE1001HP Redi TPMS because they are quick and come pre-programmed for relearn. While they do offer them in the rubber stem configuration, they dont seem to be using them for some reason. Maybe they break more often when installing them? I...- Jolly Roger

GM Flashcal For Truck - 2545 So much mixed information and conflicting data about this product, we know that its indeed capable of turning off the AFM but I cant get a strait answer as to if it will disable the TPMS. The pic on the left is taken from the manual and there is clearly a "Delete...- Jolly Roger

Antennas sticking outa my tires!
Most after-market wheels are TPMS compatible, but not actually "usable" even in the mildest off-road scenario's due to there easily breakable stems. One option I discovered during my research was using the banding method. This method is often used on aftermarket wheels that are not TPMS...- Jolly Roger

AFM yay or nay?
At what mileage do the AFM problems usually start showing up? Am I being proactive or just paranoid by putting a Range devise on a 07 with 69,000 miles on it?- Jolly Roger

Antennas sticking outa my tires!
I hate TPMS. I like the idea of it and in a perfect world they would work all the time reliably and dependably. But they dont, at least not in my experience. My objectivity is mostly due to the performance of them (or lack there of) because of where I live (Alaska). Its not out of the ordinary...- Jolly Roger

I missed the part were they said they could provide a loaner.. I also wonder if a future mechanic could simply erase everything I had them program because he saw it was different from stock entries? That would make me angry lol..- Jolly Roger

Thanks kbuskill. Thats definitely a tempting option, and a great price! I was really hoping to avoid any down time though. I figured someone on here somewhere must have stumbled on a tuner unit that does both the AFM and TPMS...any added tuning or tire size correction ect would be icing on...- Jolly Roger

Going crazy trying to decipher, read, and download instructions trying to find a "Tuner" that will turn off my AFM and TPMS. So much conflicting data. Anybody know of a tuner that is capable of doing both?- Jolly Roger

Added Emergency start battery and fuse box..
Recently added an emergency jump-start battery and fuse box for my extra lighting ect. It gets mighty cold here in Alaska, and having an on-board extra battery for self jumping and possible future accessories was a no brainer.
