Quote: The reason they didn't fix the tpms yesterday is because I haven't taken the car in yet, because i haven't had time to do it. I'm planning on doing it thursday, but maybe tomorrow.
I guess it is OK for you to wait to get the car fixed but you should think about the rest of us who can't wait to be informed about the issue and how they finally fixed it.

I got some brand new 19 amg wheels from 2008 s550 that might look nice on there.

OK!!!...so, i went in this morning to get this fiasco taken care of...

Update: The tire monitor now works...finally...the guy put the codes into the computer, which apparently they did not do the first time, and then he drove the car around for about 10 miles and came back and the TPMS error is gone...the tire readings are all coming up and i'm good...for now...im optimisic though, since all of you guys have told me that you've had very little problems with the current S...im excited that I can finally enjoy this car...like you all know if you've read my posts, i haven't honestly driven it much in the last week...today was seriously the most ive driven it since last saturday...

I just wanted to say thanks to all you guys for really helping me out and calming me down...thanks to Diesel Benz, AsianML, Trumpet1, AustinGuy, ajm0623, boylston, nitromilt, Rajwany550, NJS430, gellie...and a special thanks to Konigstiger (thanks man)...you guys were all really nice and helpful and I sincerely appreciate the support and guidance...thanks again...

Great!

Now go step on the gas!

Oh wait - you have to first let the car cross 1000 miles.

^^^Hey, thanks...

yeah...and those first 1,000 mile are probably going to seem like they are taking forever...i'm sure you can't wait to floor it either, Austin...i guess we're both in the same boat on that one...
