Q-1: Is the Autel TPMS TS608 compatible with foreign vehicles?
• This question arises because it works well with American made cars, but many are unsure if foreign vehicles work with the TS608. It also is a great tool when working with Ferrari, Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, and many other brands.
Q-2: Does the kit come standard with sensors for the tire pressure?
• Unfortunately, for the price you pay, the sensors for tire pressure are sold separately with the device you buy. However, going through the Autel site makes it relatively easy to purchase any add-ons you want with your device.
Q-3: What is the biggest micro SD card I can add to the TS608?
• Because this device doubles as a tablet or laptop, you can add an SD card to save data to. The biggest card that works on this device is 16 GB. Most use anywhere from 4 to 8 GB.
Q-4: Are there other language options for this device?
• Autel can support other languages on the TS608, like Spanish. However, there are a few steps you have to take to make this happen. First, register the device. Next, call Autel customer service. Then, they can change the language for you.
Q-5: After the warranty is up, how much does it cost to update the Autel TS608?
• When the warranty is complete, it costs $350 to update the software fully through Autel.

• The coverage extends to trucks upwards of 8600, including medium-duty trucks. However, some tractor-trailers, like the MS908CV or MS906CV, are compatible with this device as well.
Q-7: How do I install new updates to this device?
• Because this product is wirelessly capable, you can update using your wireless connection.
