Did you not get the memo on the new cover sheets for your TPS reports?

Hmm.. it is found by scrolling through that digital readout thingee.

Did you buy your car used or new? If bought used, it is totally possible the previous owner took them out. Maybe he sold an old set of tires on your Z with the TPS.

According to your profile:

daytona blue
Z/G Owner:
yes
Trim Level:
enthusiast
Location:
northridge

Do you have an Enthusiast or Touring model?

If you have a 2004 Enthusiast, then by Camaro194's post above, you do not have TPS.

Dont get pissy. You have Enthusiast in your profile, which is why highside107 pointed that out. If you have a TRUE touring model (leather, vcd, bose, etc), and it is a US spec car, you should have the TPMS.

You DO realize that if you're sitting in the garage, scrolling through, trying to find it, you may not recognize the screen b/c all you'll see is "- -", right? You have to be driving the car for the monitors to activate and transmit the pressures.

Excellent point! You need to drive around for a minute or two before the gauge will read something. Otherwise if the car is idle (on or off, doesn't matter), it's just going to read "---"

leykias - do you have AT or 6MT? If you have AT, then it came with 17" wheels and if I remember correctly, 17" wheels did not have TPMS.
