    Had the car detailed, all wheels were removed, now getting the TPMS inactive error, whats strange is there is nothing in car setup menu for TPMS, just got the car so I don’t know if the car even had the option.

    Any ideas?

    Have you driven the car after the wheels have been mounted?
    To my knowledge TPMS auto calibrate after a few miles.

    Is it "inactive" or "temporarily inactive"?
    "temporarily inactive" could be during calibration, but just "inactive" indicates it "has been deactivated by a diagnostic tool".
    In both cases there is no access to the "tyres" screen.
    It should be possible to access the "TPMS calibration" from the "setup" menu on the left TFT though.

    My mistake, it says not calibrated, yet nothing in menu to get to it. Called dealer they say its in settings and to scroll down, I'll try and look again..

    Set the tire pressures. Then go to the TPMS calibration screen and select calibrate and then drive the car.

    I had the same issue where it was asking me to calibrate yet I had no calibration option on the screen.

    He sealer had to download a software update and that corrected the issue. If you don’t have a calibration option, take it in and have them update the firmware.
