Tire sensors

[John D]

Had a flat tire on my C6 got it fixed.Do I need to have the sensor reset so tire pressure reads correct after I have the tire put back on or will it reset itself?If it has to be reset is there a place in Canada that I can order a tool to reset it? Also has anybody delt with or have any info about tirerack.com.As are they a good place to deal with? Thanks John D.

I bought one of these units. KTool.com - K-Tool International - KTIpst - Tire Inflation Positioning Service Tool Programming is literally a two minute job. Now, if you lived east of Toronto you could just drop by to get things done. Check it out on Youtube.

This happend to me a month ago...nail in my back tire, it went low...had the nail removed , with all air removed from tire,repaired it...put it back on the car and drove away, nothing to reset in my case...

Only when you use a different valve stem sensor do you have to have the computer recognize it. At least that is how I understand it.

I change rims on my C5 and the computer picked up the pressures on its own

The C6s aren't as smart and need a little help.

I have a drop off place at A Bay in Ny just by the Ivy Lee bridge.
I pay the HST and save big time.
Vette GY run flats are $ 1500 for regular or $ 1700 for F1 supercar
$ 2700 in Can.

I had a chance to look at the web site, Does anyone know what the cost is for one of these units ?

 

[John D]

Unit cost

I will be ordering one of these unit's once I get a hold of my friend from Niagara Falls New York. I ship all my stuff to him then I don't have to pay the broker's fee.As I hate to pay the OUTRAGE'S broker fee's that they charge to have thing's shipped to Canada.

I tryed to order a unit from KTool.com and they told me I have to go through a distributor.They told me that there list price is 254 dollar's.

I paid $140 to my door for a brand new unit. From a guy in Florida. I'll try to find his name. He picked up several from a guy on e-bay.

Carl.

Did you go up a size when you changed the rim--or change the tire size at all? My C6 is better now, but needed a re-set.
