Yes 2011, Sorry not sausage fingers just bad hunt and peck.

 

Got my new remote programmed Friday and everything on tires is good so far, only cost $55 at dealer. Of course while doing an inspection they found a leaking strut and a front sway bar link that need replacing for a cost of about $500 parts & labor. Am waiting for service consultant to call me back so I can give him my warranty info. It's a 2009 SS I bought in 2011 with only 13,600 miles on it and bought extended warranty on it. It's now up to about 33k miles on it, are these common issues ?

 

Yes, but I'd go ahead and get both sides fixed. The warranty will only pay for what's broke, but, if one side is bad the other must be close.

 

You too, I thought I was the only one..

 

This link doesn't work anymore... What is the tool (make/model) and will it keep me from needing an OEM FOB to get to TPMS Relearn mode? Got an aftermarket set of FOB's on '08 LT and really don't want to deal with the stealer on this one.

 

That one would not work either, see my other reply.

You will need $300 or more to do that, better off getting the correct fob.


However, after scanning your earlier post titles, I think that your RCDLR needs reprogramming.

There is a TSB re 2008 models that had no electrical power for a time completely losing the RCDLR memory. Mine was one of them.

ANY GM (Buick, for instance) dealer can do the firmware reload.

 

I agree it would be cheaper to repair the key fobs and update with the tsb. I had to have my 08 done also.

Here is the tsb.

#08-03-16-001B: Key Fobs Inoperative, TPM System Not Reading Correctly - Dashes on Al Four Tire Readings, DTCs C0775, C0569, B3105 Set, Unable to Program TPM Sensors (Reprogram RCDLR) - (Jul 31, 2008)

This bulletin is being revised to update the Important statement to reflect the new direction to no longer contact TCSC. Please discard Corporate Bulletin Number 08-03-16-001A (Section 03 - Suspension).


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Condition
Some customers may comment that the key fobs are inoperative or that the TPM system is showing dashes as the reading for all four tires.

Technicians may find DTCs C0775, C0569 and B3105 set simultaneously in the RCDLR module.

In addition, the technicians may find Tire Pressure Monitoring sensors are unable to be programmed to the vehicle by adding or releasing pressure to the tire while the vehicles in the TPM learn mode.

Cause
These conditions may be caused by the following:

• The RCDLR may lose its transmitter and tire pressure monitoring data from its memory if a low voltage condition occurs on the vehicle.

• The ability for TPM learning by adding or releasing pressure to the tire has been disabled in the RCDLR.

Correction
Reprogram the RCDLR with an updated software calibration to address both issues listed above. This new service calibration is available on TIS2WEB using Service Programming System (SPS). As always, make sure your Tech 2® is updated with the latest software.

Important: If the Tech 2® could not establish communication with the RCDLR AND the programming event ended with error, attempt to reprogram in Service Programming System (SPS) by selecting "Remote Control Door Lock Receiver (TSB 08-03-16-001) with E4399 error -- Pass Thru Only".

Once the RCDLR module has been reflashed with the latest software and calibrations, the following may also be necessary:

• Relearn all keyless entry transmitters.

• Reconfigure the tire pressure placards and the tire type.

• Relearn the tire pressure sensors.

Refer to SI for the procedures to relearn transmitters, placard and tire type configuration and tire pressure sensor learn.

 

Oh, and that TSB may have been chevymgr's response to my very first post. Hop aboard the way back machine!

I bet that a search "tpms", or "tpms position reset" would plop that right up if you scrolled through 70 or 80 threads since then on the same subject. I won't test that.
