tyre rotation

[C-Mack]

Success! I did all 4 corners separately and did a short drive after each. All 4 times it was at exactly 5 miles into the drive when the car recognized the new location of the tire I swapped out. Last step is to reset the cold tire pressures in the morning.

Again, not the ideal process to have to follow, but I’m happy I don’t need the dealer or a fancy tool to perform a tire rotation.

Nice job! I’ll take 20 miles of driving and a little hassle with a hand jack and torque wrench any day compared to a 190 mile drive to the dealer, dealing with traffic, crappy road conditions and the inevitable chipped windshield in the process.

Can the sensors be swapped back to the original positions after a tyre swap

Ok Fellas im back. After about 200 miles the system recognized the 5 tire rotation i did allowing me to avoid a trip to the dealer!!! Very happy about this and realize it seems contrary to what some others are experiencing.

Did you do all 5 tires at the same time?

Yes, I did all five tires at the same time. However, I may have spoken too soon. Because the temps dipped here and I needed to add air to all of them. That's when I noticed the tires I was adding air to was not the one it seemed to be on the Dashboard display . This photo shows what the vehicle says the tire position is by my red notes are the actual tire location I was filling. What makes this more weird and bizarre is that i followed the other diagram here to a T so not sure how the system got this confused. But I am happy that it is at least recognizing all of them, whereas before it was not.

Gotcha. That’s too bad I was hoping it would recognize them correctly.
