I do have to figure out the manufacture date on my G.. How does one figure that out??

Open drivers door, squat down and look at door frame. Rectangular black & white sticker. Usually about the second line. It should show month & year.

FYI, my dealer wants $90 for one sensor!!!!!!!!

Do you work for free or know anyone that does?

I don't!

Perhaps driving a luxury vehicle is not for you?

Call Discounted Wheel Warehouse for the price of TPMS. Last July, when I bought my rims + tires, they sold me a set of 4 TPMS at $50.00/ea.

That a better price. I will make note of them for future purchases.

Amazon.com: Premium DPAccessories TPMS Sensor, DP-TPMS-4, 315 Mhz, W/ Silver Aluminum Valve Stem, Tire Pressure System Monitor: Automotive

An ever better price and these are currently working just fine on my '11 coupe and have been for several months. I had them mounted when I got new tires for my summer wheel setup (old tpms sensors being replaced were for Acura/Honda receiver frequency).

For those close to a Discount Tire (i know a few other places extend the same courtesy)...even if you didn't buy tires at the location or have work done by them, they will activate / pair your car to the sensors. (some sensor types need either need to get up to a certain speed or need a programming TPMS transmitter near them to 'wake up' from a dormant state).
