But, a lot of the diagnostic tools, software and service information have all the trademarks of a BMW. In 2007, BMW redesigned the MINI to make it wider and improve the geometry of the rear suspension so it could accommodate a differential and axles for an all-wheel-drive system. Is it a BMW? Yes, and no.
Since being mandated in 2007, TPMS hasn’t changed much. These sensors communicate with the vehicle’s onboard computer to notify drivers of any pressure irregularities, all while relying on a connection via radio waves. It can often be controlled and even reset via the vehicle’s onboard infotainment system.
Some replacement sensors must be programmed to the vehicle application with a unique ID number that is associated with a specific wheel location. Others come preprogrammed with multi-application software already installed and do not require any additional programming, saving installation time and reducing the chance of “installer error.”

Vehicle age on the road is only rising, and TPMS is becoming more complex, creating challenges for service providers like independent tire shops. Holloway began as a product manager at Bartec, so he has seen the transformation of TPMS technology, especially since it was mandated in 2007 with the TREAD Act.
Since 2007, every new vehicle manufactured in the US has been required to include tire pressure monitoring systems (or TPMS). Auto relearns happen as the vehicle is driven at varying speeds. Stationary relearns are initiated by putting the vehicle into a special “learn mode” and using a tool to activate the sensors.

In 2000, the Clinton administration enacted the TREAD (Transportation Recall Enhancement Accountability and Documentation) Act, mandating that every new car sold in the United States after September 2007 had to be equipped with TPMS, among other safety improvements included in the act. The same idea applies here.
