I'm looking at replacing the TPMS Sensors in my 2009 Corolla.
The TPMS has worked flawlessly but the car is 10 years old and I'm told the sensor batteries are near their life expectancy.
As I need a new set of tires I thought this would be the ideal time to replace the sensors.
I can purchase a new set of 4 for about $50.00 us. The originals have metal valve stems that are troublesome in cold weather and corrode so am looking at a set with rubber valve stems (same price).
My question is:
The seller states "No sensor programming Required: These sensors come pre-programmed specifically for your make/model/year of vehicle."
Toyota on the other hand says the car needs to relearn the senors requiring programing equipment.
Anyone have any experience with this?
