This might be from way out in left field however ...
Found something interesting about setting/re-calibrating TPMS for C7s
(unsure if this would apply to the other C-Gens and/or other vehicles with TPMS).
Curious if anyone else has found out about the TPMS method below and if it has been tested and actually works?
I won't be able to test it on a C7 myself until next Spring, as I do have a learning tool to resort to if the method turns out to be snake-oil.
When I need to keep myself entertained for a half-hour, I might just have to resolve my curiosity and give this a try on one of my daily drivers.
1. start car - actual engine running - not the Accessory Mode
2. Select the tire pressure display in the DIC.
3. Press and hold the SEL button until the display changes and the horn beeps. It now says it's in learn mode.
4. Now drive (as it says in the manual?) for about 10 min at above 20 kph (12-15mph). (use of a setting tool might not be necessary now)
5. Suddenly, it will find all 4 sensors and pressure will display
6. when you shut the car off , the "learn DIC" will display again and horn beeps to confirm learning is complete.
(note: the sequence for getting into the TPMS learning mode may be different - refer to the specific vehicle manual)
