New tires and TPMS installed.
And now the TPMS lights won't go off. Apparently there's some "TPMS" relearn procedure than needs to be done. Likely at the dealer.
Sigh.
Another great "engineering" turd by Audi.
Coincidentally, I just put my winter tires c/w TPMS on yesterday. It took about 30 minutes of driving before the TPMS sensors re-paired with the ECU. I’ve done this dance every tire changeover for the last 5 years.
I've driven in excess of 30 minutes. It's been a few hours cumulative, so it's more than that.
Someone in an Audi forum wrote this:
"Adapting the tire pressure sensors is a basic requirement for the tire pressure monitoring system to function properly.
Each time a tire or tire pressure monitoring system is replaced, press the multimedia system control head button in the center console when in the tire pressure monitoring menu when the ignition is turned on and the vehicle is standing.
The vehicle must stand for 20 minutes and then be driven on a 10 minute adaptation drive at speeds higher than 25 km/h.
If the multimedia system control head button is not pressed, the system adapts the new sensors but still illuminates the warning lamp to request actively the confirmation the actual tire pressures.
The system detects a malfunction if the control module is not ready for adapting because the 20 minute waiting period was not completed. The system only adapts the tire pressure monitoring sensors automatically after a 20 minute waiting period. If the control module is ready, “YES/NO“ can be read in measured values block 126."
