Oh it isn't fixed yet. He has to come back.It would be interesting to know what they actually did. The local ranger in Edmonton was unable to correct my TPMS issue.

At this point, I think it's best if anyone who is affected, contact Tesla and reference this message. It may help with prioritizing it. At the very least, I hope we can take this as "it's officially noted". In the meantime, it looks like I'll be making visits to Kal tire every time I do a wheel swapI completely understand where you're coming from. I myself do a lot of my own car's maintenance at home, so I can put that into perspective. I greatly appreciate all the information you provided for me to look at. What I will do now is submit a request for that feature to be added back, and forward it to the appropriate team so they can start looking at that feature so many other driver's found useful. Our team reviews every customer request seriously, but there is not guarantee or timeline for feature requests. With that being said, you may have to see a shop once you swap your tires to rest the sensor until.
Thank you for being part of the Tesla community.
Best,

Unfortunately not. The local Kal tire store, said they would try to reprogram my sensors. I'll post the results once I get a chance to get over there.Oh it isn't fixed yet. He has to come back.
I had this same problem after V10. I took it in for service, and they replaced the sensors and module. Luckily, it was covered under my extended warranty, minus my $200 deductible. Now I have the newer version sensors. Not happy this happened, but they first quoted me around $1,100, stating it wouldn't be covered by my warranty, that it was normal wear and tear. And I did say it started after V10.
I agree it's BS. But, for me, as I'm planning on selling it soon, I want the car in top shape. And, yes, Tesla should fix this for everyone free of charge, period. I did not change out tires recently, either. It was just the V10, in my mind, that started this. Very clear to me.This is BS. It shouldn't even have a deductible taken from it, as it is all Tesla's fault. We bought a car with a TPMS reset button that works with our tires. We bought winter tires that works with the car. Afterwards, Tesla changed the frequency of the TPMS's and the sensor antenna. Old frequency TPMS's still worked for 6 years with the reset button. Then they disable our button in V10 since only new frequency TPMS's are in their field of view, forgetting about us original supporters. They should be on the hook for fixing this mess. It may involve lifetime ranger resets if that even works, didn't work for me. It may involve changing the antennas in our car and sensors in our summer/winter tires (I've actually got 3 sets to change - all seasons with original rims, winters with aftermarket rims, and arachnid summers that I won), or simply reprogramming the reset button back in the software. Very frustrating!
TPMS is a regulatory requirement in many locations for a 2013 vehicle if I understand correctly, and Tesla cannot simply take it away Willy Nilly. And, as a result they are taking away traction control!
Here is a link that shows how the clone process is done with the TS501... but for cloning to new Autel sensors. If I understand correctly, while the TS501 can read other brand TPMS sensors it can't program other brand sensors....got the Autel TS501 programming device today and could read the IDs of summer tires Baolong sensors. But there's no way to copy the IDs to the winter tire sensors...
I have the same problem. This is a royal screw-up by Tesla and I’ll refuse to pay anything for a fix, even though I’m still under extended warranty. They seem to have forgotten that older Model S’s still exist. This is especially weird since my Model 3 on V10 software still has a TPMS reset button.
