TPMS Sensor - Final Word from GM

If you have multiple cars a TPMS programmer is pretty cheap these days and you can program or clone your old sensors. You have to buy the programmers brand of sensor but most of them are equivalent in life to OEM, mine has paid its self off many, many times over.

I don't know if a TPMS reprogrammer will work with the 2010. I see that "chevy pilot" replied the spooftpms works with the 2010 in Finland. It seemed after my taking it to the Chevy dealer that even they couldn't figure out what is unique about the 2010 sensor system so that is why I was wondering if the spooftpms will work. Would a 2010 in Finland be the same system as in the US? Also, has anyone bought one and had it shipped to the US? If so, any customs problems?

I assume that is because the original part ones even if sittng on the shelf somewhere have batteries that are going bad. I have absolutely had it with the TPMS system with dead batteries and incompatibility. Has anyone found a way to get rid of the system easily along with the DIC error message?

I got 4 years out of my Ebay ones , they are going dead one by one.We just got a new Belle Tire store by me that i having replace them, $70! Which includes taking the wheel off, dismounting tire cleaning everything, remounting balancing and programming! didnt think that was bad at all! We will see how long these last.

My original sensors that came with the car from the factory are GM12768826 which are 315 MHz. That part number is listed as compatible with the spooftpms. So, guess I will give it a shot and order one.
