Tire Pressure Monitor (software) Sl63
can someone please help,
I have a 2009 Sl63 AMG (Us Spec) that I bought from the USA. I shipped it to the Middl-East. It is where I am living now. just about a month ago I got the tire pressure yellow light on after I changed the tires. An additional meassage of "inoperative" also popped up at the screen. I took it to the dealer. Unfortunatley, they couldnt find out what the problem was, because my car is a US spec and thier online computers only work for Gulf spec. They told me it could be either one of the wheel sensors or the transmitters to the sensors or it could be the tire pressure monitor itself. They couldnt know for sure without knowing from the computer. What can I do in this situation? how can I get the US spec codes? or is there any device I can order to read the software in my car?
your help is really appreciated, there are alot of experienced folks in here with MB. I hope you can help me

If your car is set for "USA", then they need to use a system that can talk to it. I'm not really surprised that MB locks down their computers, though...
