Turn off TPMS warning?

Soundchasr · 01-13-2012, 10:28 AM

The wheels I have on now don't have the TPMS sensors in them and the warning comes on every time I start the car. Is there a way to turn it off?

Thanks!

Great investment but if you don't want to buy one you can post on the local forums to see if someone will do it for you

I just bought summer tires getting them on next week, someone on another forum said the TPMS is in the ABS so sensors are there just need to be reset?

A 2012 Q5 does not use the traditional in-wheel sensor. (Rubber valve stems = ABS-based system)

You may not have to reset anything.
