That's a very good video and a beautiful car ! I went through this process 3 years ago on my Aston Martin. Using the same Autel TPMS tool, I was able to program all of my 8 wheels for a fraction of the price of what a dealer would have charged. Since both, the summer and the winter set of wheels are clones, I can just swap them twice a year without the need to plug into the car's module.
Thank you for the kind words! I hate seeing people getting ripped off by the dealer so I'm trying to show people that there are options besides the dealer. If you can change your own oil then you can also program TPMS sensors. :) What year Aston Martin do you own? I had a 2005 DB9 that I bought back in 2010 and it had TPMS problems a few years later (dead sensors). Back then Aston Martin used a proprietary system called "Smart Tire" that only the dealer could service. Sadly there wasn't any aftermarket support for this system back then. Simply put, I lived with the dead TPMS sensors since most Aston Martin dealers think their customers make 7 figures. lol! Besides that it was a fantastic car and I miss it dearly. One day I will get that 2015 or later Vanquish!
@@DIYDanCars I've got an 09' 4.7 V8 Vantage. It has the older "SmarTire" TPMS system like your DB9 did. The 433 Mhz Autel MX generic sensors work well with the SmarTire system. Like you said, you need a dealer tool to register new sensors into the car's control unit. However, you can get around that by using the ID of the SmarTire sensors currently fitted on the car to program the new Autel sensors. I had to use the manual imput method because the old sensors were completely dead and could no longer be read. Fortunately, the SmarTire sensors have their ID printed on them. The Autel generic sensors accept an 8 digit decimal ID. All you need to do is take the last 7 numbers of the SmarTire sensor's ID and add a zero in front. For example a SmarTire ID "173-1-1-0119637" becomes "00119637". Make sure that the TPMS tool is set to "decimal" and not "hexadecimal". There is a setting under the "My device" menu. "New" Vanquish is definitely a dream car. Probably one of the finest to this day. Although, the V12 Vantage S is also something to dream of. 😀
You did a good job doing TPMS repairs on the Maserati GranTurismo. If you're in my shoes as a mechanic, you wouldn't believe how many Autel MX 1-Sensors were sold at my workplace since 2018.
I have already spent $700 on my TMPS issue on my m139 QP GTS for it still to be broken. I bought a set of preprogrammed sensors for $350 and had them installed for $150, didn't work. On top of paying $250 for a diagnosis at the dealer for them to tell me it's going to be $2,500 to fix it. I want to take a chisel and smash out the light on the dash.
Wow! What a nightmare. This is why I work on my own cars. Sorry you had to go through that. This is one of the reasons why I created this video, to show people that even though you own an "exotic" car doesn't mean fixing the TPMS system has to cost a small fortune to fix.
thank you Dan! im watching all of the videos! your awesome and so meticulous of the care you give and the reasons are super helpful i appreciate the simplicity and transparency of all your videos!
Bro rode 'em down to slicks...no wonder he got 20k miles out of them...🤣 I run aftermarket wheels with 345's on the rear of my GT and keep a tad bit of negative camber so I only get about 13k miles. I like the way it corners and doesn't wander on the straights but my inside tire wear is premature. You have nice even wear across your tires. 👍
No problem! Happy to help! Absolutely you can. Both of my tools currently have expired subscriptions when I did this video and I was able to program the sensors with no problems. The way I understand it is the subscription service is to get access to the software updates for the new model year vehicles. Right now my tool is good up to the 2023 model year since I didn't buy the subscription. If I get a 2024 or newer car, then I would have to pay for the subscription in order to work on those model years.
@@DIYDanCars Appreciate your answer. Although since my subscription has ended I’ve noticed that it stops giving me a full live data on my cayenne for example It no longer shows the air pressure in each airbag for the air suspension
@@mostwanted33986 I don't own a Cayenne anymore so can't verify some of those functions anymore. However I use my MK808 almost weekly and the subscription expired in December of last year and I haven't noticed any issues with functionality. What model scan tool do you have?
@@mostwanted33986 You have a much nicer scan tool than I do. The best one I have is the MK808Z-TS. I wonder if there is something different in subscription fees about the automotive mechanic type tool (the one you have) vs the DIY shade tree tool?
