Other half's Nissan has suffered two cracked sensors, and the sensors cannot be paired with the computer without equipment that only dealers have. It was $300 with labor & tax to replace one. My car (different make) has the sensor alarm on continuously though the pressures are okay. Only two data points, but they are not encouraging. Maybe tires were getting too reliable so they had to add something that would break more easily. --sp --=20 http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
