This. ^


I put the winters on last week, and haven't had the chance to pop by the dealer yet to have the car "adjusted". I park the car about 20 feet from the garage (summer wheels are inside). On my way to work the light starts blinking at the same point on the trip regardless of speed. I just went out and re-set the trip odo...if I remember to look at it when the light starts flashing, I'll post up the reading.
