Probably not worth its own thread, but I had read quite a few reports of the TPMS system taking some time to reflect the correct pressures after a tire rotation.

I recently took advantage of a break between rain storms to complete the first rotation on my BL. I was very happy to see that the new pressures were recognized almost immediately, before I even left my driveway. I intentionally set 2 tires to unique pressures, while leaving the other 2 at 39. The experience was the same after a short drive and then correcting the 2 unique tires to match...instant recognition of the new pressures. (y)

Also took the opportunity to install recently purchased Advanced Locks locking lug nuts.
Noticeably smaller than the OE lug nuts, mostly due to the conical shape.
Using the key is easy and provides plenty of torque for loosening/tightening.

And because all threads should have pics, here's one of the (formerly) spare now mounted on the right-rear.

With my first three rotations (5 tires) the TPMS sensors reflected the correct position within a mile of driving. On my fourth rotation over the past weekend no joy...drove 20+ miles and they still have not relearned the positions, one position is showing a blank and the other three are showing incorrect pressures. First glitch I've had with the truck.

Over the last 4 years, I’ve rotated my tires 6 times now, and they always read correctly right away. Maybe there are different specs among manufactures of those little devices? I don’t recall the brand I have.

I’ve used this with good results.

I just did my first rotation last week on my '24 WT. TPMS was updated within the first 1/2mi on the test drive.

I could tell since the spare that moved to rear left was at 36psi and the rest were at 39.

The OEM ones are very good and update almost immediately, the aftermarket sensors can be suspect.

my 2021 model also has worked wonderfully the first years but after I hit 100k miles it seems one of my tpms wants to be replaced, keeps giving sensor fault and reading blank or 0psi but the tire is fine. Makes me sad :(
