dead TPMS on new wagon?
I bought a 2020 e63 wagon in November and immediately swapped the wheels to a winter set. In putting the summers back on this last week - two of the TPMS aren't getting picked up by the car. I've reset thru the dash a couple times, but still no luck. I understood TPMS batteries to have like a 7 year life. Summer wheels were stored in my garage, and possibly (doubtful) got below freezing at some point during the winter. I'd be disappointed if that affected them. And the two out of four seems odd.
Winter sensors picked up just fine. Swapped wheels on my last wagon for a couple years with no issues.
Thoughts? I know there's always the dealer. But simpler, quicker fixes are always welcome.

Cold weather does not effect: I was getting readings this winter at 10 degrees below zero. My 2019 E450 is now 16 months old.

Time to see Doug at the dealer. How are you liking the AMG? I tuned my E450 and it really does feel a lot like the AMG below 3000 RPM's or so, it feels a lot faster than it really is though. Over 3K RPMS, nowhere near the power of the AMG. Just had another thought, for a quicker fix you could go to German Motors, that place is great. Might be worth a shot.

Enjoying the AMG a lot. More taut as I wanted. Horsepower on my daily is largely unusable except in very rare moments. Very happy with the tires on this one. Actually had a couple trim rattles that were bothersome, but minor. Love the stealth except to those who know - useless fun. I’ll be keeping it for a long time.
