Okay, I called the four dealerships in the Knoxville area and they all admitted that they’ve gotten rid of their DRB tools. Before I start calling Nashville or Atlanta, does anyone know a dealership with the tools that’s closer? If not, do you have a link to the DRB software emulator that you can buy & download to a laptop?

I found a link to this:

https://www.obdii365.com/wholesale/c...stic-tool.html

It's currently out of stock, but, is this the best “tool” to get for all things 2005 Crossfire?
I thought that there was a version where you buy the software with one license and then bought more as needed. I have a 2003 Toyota Tacoma S-Runner is why I ask.

Thanks, as always.

Here's the link to the thread that discusses the DRBIII Emulator. John & Terry have helped quite a few of us get setup with the capability to handle TPMS issues. CLICK

Here's the link to the MIcroPod 2 most of us bought: CLICK

The dealerships have the Micropod and installed on it is the DRB 3 emulator. They just don't realize it but it is on there. I would call them back again or just show up like I suggested before.

I wanted to thank Dennis for meeting me in Asheville to get the TPMS working. I had a great drive there and back on the winding road in NC. I also learned more about the tools that I think that I’ll be investing in.

Your welcome. Gave me the opportunity to drive my coupe on a short day trip. I just like driving this car!
