Check your valves, if they are bendable rubber you don't have TPMS, you have FTM (flat tire monitoring). Not sure installing TPMS valves will do much as I wouldn't expect Canadian cars will have the sensor to read. Apparently more companies are going away from TPMS in favour of FTM. Cheaper to maintain, and cheaper to get extra wheels (as you don't need to spend hundreds on sensors).

Not for me, someone else was asking. But I believe someone had posted about changing to the tpms and it worked. I could be wrong though.

So, successfully VO and FDL coded AGHB, TJA to my 2015 F15. But, I am having trouble coding my newly installed trailer lighting module (AAG). I VO coded 3AC, but cannot code it to the module as the “Code” option is grayed out. Also, no CAFD file for FDL coding.

Is my PSdZData file too old? Something else I did wrong? Currently getting trailer hitch electrical/bulb fault. Any ideas?

Should I post this question elsewhere

Only reason to change PSdZData is if "Read Coding Data" results in "not found [C012]" error.

Searched this thread but did not find it, and for some crazy reason it doesn't happen to be in the cheat sheet.... It has to be possible...
Huh?

Oh that! Lol
Why do you need the parking break on at every stop?
If you push the brake pedal down hard the X5 will hold the brake even on a steep incline for a few seconds after you let go of the brake

So nobody has enabled the Auto-Hold function by default?

Buy a Volvo if you want that. Personally, I dislike it when trying to pull out of or into a parking spot. I always enable one one the road driving.

That's an overkill IMO. Sounds like you need traffic jam assistant retrofit .

hello, I would like to add new vo code to the new equipment. I have other wheels (styling 375 instead of 469) and BMW M Performance Interior moldings Carbon. Write the codes SZHEA and SZC4A (of course the middle 3 characters) with calculate FP is the error: "not all elements of the FA were found in FA2FP [72] system error" Earlier I added, for example, the S417A ROLLER SUN VISOR code, REAR DOOR which I did not have before and succeeded. does anyone have any idea why this is so?

You cannot add elements that are not valid for FAFP.

To retrofit "trailer lighting module" (which I assume you to mean the trailer hitch), you need to program it with ISTA or pay the dealer.

Or do the coding via ESys. It's a total of 7 modules, including the AAG.
