Hi,
2020 model 3 M3P with 433mhz TPMS
So i added aftermarket wheels, new aftermarket TPMS...They didnt work so I changed the sensors for stock Tesla sensors....Still didnt work.
I then put the stock sensors in that came in the stock wheels with the car....Didnt work.
Took the car to Tesla and they said the new wheels (Signature) were blocking the output of the TPMS (bullshit), charged me $100 and sent me home with instructions to change the wheels and put the sensors back in.
I then went to a local tyre shop where they used a generic reader to confirm they were working and showing pressures etc.
I put the stock sensors back into the stock wheels, over the course of 1000 miles and many many resets they would not pair with the car so I took it to them and they manually inputted the sensors into the ECU and they now work, they charged me $80 to pair the stock sensors in the stock wheels to the car whilst in warranty when I was under the impression they should have paired themselves.
I disputed this because I am sure it says in the manual that you can autolearn the TPMS and there is even a button to reset TPMS and or wheels in the settings.
They have told me that you cannot ever change wheels, or TPMS or rotate the wheels without taking it to them and paying them to input the vaules of the TPMS into the ECU.
Can someone please give advice on this, I feel like im getting ripped off by Tesla and they are refusing to repair a fault whist charging me for that fault in warranty.
EDIT: cant edit spelling in title omg.
