Upstairs watching sports on the big TV.
TMPS Tire monitoring pressure system.

Long story short..

I have a Black on Black 2013 Infiniti M37x.

I purchased gorgeous TSW chrome rims.

2 weeks after purchase, I get a low tire pressure warning lite.

I checked systems to see which tire was affected; no information.....

I hustle to discount tires, they fix nailed tire, then check with their sensor gun, ALL TMPS batteries are dead.....did not know they even had batteries..their service life is 5-8 yrs.

How much to replace $240.00 "I say go ahead, its a safety feature."

Got to thinking about it, I DID GET an electrical indication there was a pressure problem....

Holler at manager...explain situation, they get a back-up sensor gun, ALL IS OK, the first sensor gun was faulty...they re-calibrate sensors, I leave up $240.00..

I am posting this just because.......
