TPMS tool
I'm looking at getting a TPMS tool, to scan/program the TPMS on my 2013 Subaru WRX. What I'm looking for is something that I can use to program my ECU for my winter and summer tires and maybe in the future a set of track tires.

I'm looking for something that doesn't need a computer to work.

I'm looking to spend up to $500.00, but less money the better, if it does what I want.

Be nice for it to remember at least 12 TPMS. Thanks for as any help.

I was looking for the same thing when my MIL bought her 2013 Outback. I believe I concluded that Subaru makes it a royal PITA. Might be proprietary? Required their software - or their actual hardware? I don't remember exactly.

Good luck, and I'll be following this as well.

I don't think that one will work for a Subaru. The guys over at Discount/America's Tire have to break out the special OBDII tool to relearn my tires each time I do a five tire rotation.

This is what we use. A little out of your pricing parameters but a good tool. If you need any info send me a message and you can talk to my tech.

Does it need a PC/computer to work? I was looking at this but wasn't sure.

You guys are talking about a TPMS re-learn tool right? $500.00?? I bought one for my 2019 Colorado off Amazon for around $25 and it works perfectly.

Hey, for $35 isn't it worth finding out? This is Amazon - if it doesn't work tell them their listing is wrong and they'll take it back.
