US TPMS compared to FTW in Canada?
At this point Tire Rack does not seem to have the answer, so I have placed a hold on my winter package order.
I suspect the 535s and 550s in Canada have the less sophisticated system (Flat Tire Warning), but I am waiting for confirmation from the dealer. The car is being shipped, so I can't examine it myself.
It's conceivable (but unlikely) that Canadian-spec cars have the same TPMS detector module as USA cars and could recognize signals if the USA-style sensors are installed. Tire Rack initially thought so, but now seems uncertain.
