Wondering if it is possible to upgrade my TPMS to the new system that shows each tire individually. If so has anyone had it done and what is the cost.

Yes you can... I did mine a few months back. 1000 bucks.. works greatWondering if it is possible to upgrade my TPMS to the new system that shows each tire individually. If so has anyone had it done and what is the cost.
I have a May 2013 so it should work as well, thanks for the info.I have a March 2013 P85 and had the upgrade done several months ago. I had issues with repeated error messages with the original TPMS system (repeated loss of sensor signal). Updated system works great and displays tire pressure on the instrument cluster, and requires nothing to be done when tires are rotated. Cost was just under $500.

Can you tell me where the tire pressure read out shows, is it behind the steering wheel or center screen.I have a March 2013 P85 and had the upgrade done several months ago.

Thanks, the sc says the parts are on back order and they will let me know when they have them in stock, so I assume they can do the upgrade.It shows on the instrument cluster in the same place where the navigation displays. You select what you want displayed on the left portion of the instrument cluster using the left rotary wheel on the steering wheel. I have my setting set to normally display the tire pressure. When you use the navigation system to guide you, the navigation "pictures" take priority over the tire pressure display.
Just another data point...
A sensor went out recently and I was given the option to upgrade my Sig P85 to the new system, scheduled for a couple weeks from now. I was told out of warranty it would be ~$500.
The bad news... I'll have to upgrade my 6.2 firmware to current.
I'm confused. Why would I "buy the old sensor" (~$50) and keep the old functionality ("Hey at least one tire looks low, guess which one.") rather than pay nothing (warranty), get the new functionality ("FL: 45psi, FR 45psi, ..."), and be "current" on the tech?Or just buy the one old sensor (...maybe even from a place like Tire Rack) and get the 'good old' functionality like I have on my 2013 build. Again, I really like my FOBO Plus system--programmable, good data, connectivity...too bad the sensors are a bit clunky.

Since this thread was resurrected, I'll just follow up by adding that our pre-owned Model S, which we purchased from Tesla in early Autumn 2016, did indeed come with a warranty. Tesla graciously replaced our car's TPMS with the latest version at no cost to us.On the 2012 S 85 that we recently bought from Tesla, we almost invariably get a TPMS error ("contact Tesla service center" or something like that) after 20-40 minutes of driving, give or take. As I don't believe we have the CPO warranty, we live more than an hour away from the closest service center, and I don't feel like spending $500 on this, I'm inclined to do nothing and just ignore the error messages. They tend to go away after additional driving. In this scenario, where the TPMS errors are intermittent, will the system generally still report a low tire pressure situation? Obviously if for some period of time it isn't picking up a signal from one of the sensors, the corresponding tire won't be monitored. But hopefully the system would still report a low pressure reading from one of the other sensors.
