Hi all,
Do all '06 and up cars have TPMS and can play MP3 music? When did TPMS become standard?
thx

Not sure... I did have a software issue before that caused my PCM to stop playing mp3's. They ended up fixing it by giving me a new PCM under warranty, but shortly after, they also released a software disc that fixed the issue.

My recommendation is to buy the Dension unit, and play an iPod filled with mp3's. I actually use a 4GB USB hard drive (which is an option on the Dension once you disconnect the iPod) to play all of mine now and it works great.

TPMS was an option for 05. MP3 is standard since 06. i believe the TPMS is standard in late 06 cars. certainly for 07 it's standard.

How exactly does the TPMS work and what is it comporsed of? IE- is it wireless? Is it powered by a battery? Etc.

Also, are there special considerations when changing a tire with TPMS installed?

Thanks
