TPMS Sensors
All 4 of my TPMS Sensors are dead. Have my car in at the Dealer for Plugs & Coils and asked for a price on replacing the Tire Pressure Sensors. They quoted me $1800 for them. Im shocked to say the least. I asked if they came with new tires...Service Advisor laughed. lol

What's the alternative? I know their has to be something more realistic.

$1800 for just the TPMS/install is hilarious.

People typically have good results with aftermarket ones for $130/set:

OP, I see you are in Clearwater. I bought a set of aftermarket ones from a place in Sarasota when I was down there on vacation. They have worked fine for the last 2 or 3 years. I paid $180US for the set. Worth changing them out every 2 to 3 years when tires get changed...

I can look up the name of the place if you are interested.

If the dealership is owned by Harvey Weinstein and Bill Cosby that explains a lot! Contact Tire Rack or Pelican Parts.

I have seen the TPMS sensors coded off in the ecu on a friends car and remember seeing a thread on the forum regarding the topic. If memory serves you have to unplug the receiver and re code.

I have an air compressor and 2 tire pressure gauges, so I had my indie turn the tpms off with the durametric. Three years now and no problems; no regrets.

Thanks for the help guys! Purchased a set on TireRack for $300 and dropped them off at the dealer. They ended up charging me $45 a tire to install. They said it took several attempts to program but they work perfectly fine.
