Tire pressure light after 2.5 years?
I've had my Volks on my car for 2.5 years now. Since a few days ago, my TPS indicator came on. WTF? it has never came on since i've put my volks on...
EDIT: I DO NOT have the TPS sensors on my Volk wheels, which is why i question the indicator light...

I imagine that if you are getting some of the cold weather that we are getting in Atlanta that might have something to do with it. Also, the TPS light comes on when the tire pressure is low - which might happen after 2.5 years... this information is all in the owners manual, too.

According to the TSB, there are three possible causes:
1) TPMS failure
2) Loose long term storage fuse
3) TPMS ECU connector pulled out
I would check #2, see image below. If it is not #2, take it to the dealer:
1) TPMS failure
2) Loose long term storage fuse
