TPS Sensors for 2014 ML550
Would like to purchase an extra set of wheels, tires and TPS. If I purchase the new wheels, do I have to bring the car to the dealer to have it learn the new TPS or can I reprogram it myself. Its a 2014 ML550

what is the answer to the question though? I have a second set of rims wit sensors already in them. Will I need to bring it somewhere to reset the sensor or will it just recognize the new sensors?

It just learns automatically within 5 miles of driving.

This is the case if you are buying OEM in which case all you need to do is follow the"relearn procedure". For Mercedes Benz, it is driving the vehicle a few miles.
If you are buying aftermarket, you NEED TO MAKE SURE that they come programmed (specific sensor protocols) to your specific brand, model, specifications, particularly, the right frequency. TPMS sensors are available in two frequencies, 315MHz and 433MHz (Europe). If you already purchased TPMS sensors and they were not programmed, NOT TO WORRY. You'll need to have them programmed at your local MB dealership or local reputable tire shop (requires a TPMS tool such as theVT31, VT36 and VT56).

Thank you. These are the actual original sensors that came with the car. I bought someone else's factory 19 inch rims (and their factory sensors) and put snows on them. Now its time to switch back. Trying to avoid needing to go to the tire shop for obvious reasons these days.
