2010 Sonata Limited Canada Standard equipment?
Just wondering if TPMS is standard on 2010 Hyundai Sonata Limited i4??
Cant find any details on it on the Hyndai canada site!!!
I just got winter tires installed and the TPMS light did not turn on as i was expecting as the rims are just regular steal rims...

To confirm whether TPMS is installed on the car or not, turn the ignition key to the on postion. All the indicator lights in the cluster will light up. If TPMS is not on the car, indicator lights #2 and #3 will not be evident.

I don't think so, at least for Canada but one can easily distinguish between the TPMS sensors and regular valve stems. In the U.S. they have been mandatory at least since 2008 since both my 2008 and 2009 have it as standard equipment.
They are an unmixed blessing, however, as you will see them go off if they drop much below the necessary PSI which I try to keep at 32 psi. And the worst aggravation is that new sensors have to be programmed at the dealer with his "magic" computer. And these things are not cheap either. You can look on ebay for a representative price and I believe at the dealer they are at least $60 each plus programming which in some cases can be classified as highway robbery.
The TPMS sensors can be transferred from the alloys to steel wheels and vice-versa and it is recommended that "rebuild" kits be utilized although I'm not entirely certain that is really necessary.

Good for the archives
I am still not sure if I am happy about it or not.. but atleast I know I don't need to take it to the dealership to get it checked!
