Makes sense... I know we discussed the programming in SDD for tire pressure. I wonder if there is a setting for wheel size as well? I wonder if its possible with new wheel size the computer is getting signals a split second later than it thinks it should be with larger circumference wheels. Probably not but just thinking out loud...
I had no issues going from 19 wheels to 20 wheels.
Wonder if there is a date code in all those numbers on those sensors. Just because they were newly installed, doesnt mean they were new.

Typically when changing wheel sizes, the tire diameter stays the same, just the sidewall height changes, otherwise you get speedometer reading changes with the different circumferences.
I had no issues going from 19” wheels to 20” wheels.

I get that the outside diameter is basically the same when you include the lower profile tire, but the sensors themselves are travelling a longer distance to make it back around to the antenna because they are on a 1" bigger circle and the distance to the antenna would change because of this as well... I know it probably isn't the problem was just throwing it out there...

Hi all
the TPMS story continues...
Was at the dealer last week and had them look at the TPMS warning light that kept on being lit after I put on my new winter tires (with new sensors fitted!). The mechanic said the sensors id numbers were not registered with the car. He then did register them (and deleted the ones of my summer tires, even though you can have 2 x 4 wheels registered. This in order to make sure the TPMS really works). When I left the dealer, the TPMS warning was reset and off.
Drove the car for 2 days and approx. total of 40 mls: today the TPMS error was back
Hmmm... really not great!!
... and keep in mind, my TPMS never gave errors before I had my new winter tires fitted!

SDD does indeed have the functionality to register the sensors. In doing so, the car doesn't need to learn by driving. That said, the mechanic could have just deleted the registered sensors altogether and let the car learn by driving. Any shop with a TPMS tools can confirm the sensor id @ each wheel. You can then compare that with what was registered @ each wheel using SDD. They should also be able to confirm the module and sensor are using the same frequency as Jagtoes suggests.

Ok, so jags DO have a provision to do something that is unnecessary in SDD, but if it ISN'T done, the car works anyway. Methinks that although the car CAN read which sensors are where (even though that doesn't matter with the car's system) that deleting/changing any of the probably Info-Only reference would only mean that the car would re-acquire the needed info regardless.
Seems like a step taken for a shotgun troubleshooting. Course maybe it'd be good to see if either the Receiver module or the TPMS module took a crap.
Plus, if the system DID need to be manually registered or changed or whatever, then either every tire shop in the world would need SDD, or only Jaguar dealers could sell/install tires.

It happened on my wife's Cadillac when we had new tires installed on her SRX. The wheels were moved around from their original location and they didn't properly reset TPMS so we were getting false warnings. Once I reset them, the problems went away. Same concept here but admittedly, only asking the question.

Update!! Meanwhile I am again back on my summer tires and the TPMS error is permanently gone. The summer tires are equipped with the TPMS sensors that were originally fitted when car was delivered new in 2011.
So for me it is pretty clear that my problem with TPMS was caused by one or several faulty or incompatible TMPS sensors in my winter wheels, although they were fitted with new JLR branded sensors, which responded just fine each time when I had them checked in various workshops with TPMS readers.
Guess I need to swap these sensors for others. Big question is which to use, if the JLR branded ones I have now are giving trouble. Is it possible that my 2011 XK maybe doesnt like newer generations of sensors?

I used 15mm spacers on the rear when I got my Takobas. Offsets on 09 are different than newer cars that offered Takoba wheels.
