Since some info was released before hand,and knowing how Scion does things, I am going to take a stab at this and ask this question. If you can answer it than kudos, if not, than i must wait to find out.


Tire Pressure Monitor: If we upgrade to our own wheels and not that of the dealer, will that void the warranty? If yes so does that mean we have to bring the wheels to them to put in for us just to keep the warranty valid??????????

the monitor is not on the wheels or tires but on the valves. i would assume if you replace the wheels and tires have them use the original valves from the car.


For 2007, the tC’s tire pressure warning system has been greatly enhanced. Each tC wheel is now equipped with a valve/transmitter that incorporates a pressure sensor. The sensor directly measures air pressure inside the tire, then sends the air-pressure measurements via radio wave to an antenna/receiver installed within the tC’s body structure. The tire pressure monitor system’s sensors can detect a severe drop in the tire inflation pressure while the vehicle is in motion. When this happens, the tire pressure monitor system turns on a low tire pressure light in the gauge cluster.
