Tire Change - Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

[StrawberryS2]

I have a new 2020 G70 and I am trying to change my winter tires (no TPMS) to summer tires (with TPMS). The dealership says they will charge me extra $30 compared to normal tire change cost due to 're-programming' the TPMS when changed to summer tires.

Could anyone advise if this is a reasonable labour? Do you need to 're-program' TPMS everytime you change to summer tires from winter tires? Thank you!

Cost seems reasonable, just not sure why the difference in summer/winter. Another person posted saying his winter tires required less pressure. This says more.

If you didn't have sensors in the winter wheel/tire assemblies and you ran all winter with a tpms warning, I would think the car will recognize the oem set of wheels/tires.No reprogramming should be needed.
