Very interesting thread. I have VE SSV Redline and would like to do the same. MY12 and looking through the menu in engineering mode TPMS is there. I figure all I need to do is have sensors installed and configure them to my car using the method on page 2. Am I on the right track?

No needs to be enabled in dash cluster. Then have the RFA programmed. Then sensors fitted and learnt in

I have got this and there is no mucking around. works like a charm, just need a mobile phone mount. Also works on my iPad Air 2. Can view it with the ignition off and from inside my house... (Can monitor up to 20 cars as well if you have multiple vehicles)

• Theft deterrent - if stolen, sensors and in-car unit cannot be reused as they're locked to a specific owner's Fobo cloud account.

So what's the go here, is someone offering a service to setup TPMS? Or is it only going to live in the vehicles of those who have expensive computers?

Hi All,

I know this is an old thread, but I thought I’d try.

I asked City Holden (Adelaide) about programming the RFA and cluster and said they don’t have the software and it can’t be done. I did point them to this thread, but it didn’t appear to help them.

I have a VE Series II Calais V (MY12), and checked the website in this thread with my VIN, and it says it should be an option.

Did anyone have any luck with any Holden dealers in Adelaide (of the ones left)?

Hi All,

I know it’s an old thread, but thought I’d report back. Managed to get it working today. Peter Page Holden was kind enough to do it. Yes, involved enabling TPM in the RFA, and enabling the TPM in the instrument cluster.

I used some genuine sensors I got off eBay. So, once I found a helpful Holden dealer it was fairly painless.
