For sure...free if you go to the same dealer. It is very inconvenient to go to a dealer every time you need air. I get air for free at the local gas station. Air is mostly nitrogen anyway.

Since someone brought it up: Nitrogen is a scam. Don't waste your time worrying about it.

"air" is roughly 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen. scam for us, yes. Useful in a F-1 car? probably.

I bought the AEV pro cal and just set the limit to 0. If you change tire size you really need a programmer like this to reset the speedo anyway.

Agree 100% on the AEV Pro Cal Tool, Works great on zero setting. I actually run regular air stems like the old days. I check my tire pressure daily visually and via guage every 2 weeks. The AEV Tool does many things , worth every penny. WWW.AEV-CONVERSIONS.COM. Solves all these issues any many others for $150 or less.
