New Windshield and Tire sensors

Has anyone needed to replace there windshield yet? If so where and how much? Also has anyone have or had a problem with the tire pressure monitoring system. One of my tires has a small leak, took it to get check out and they could not find any leak so i am guessing its the tire pressure sensor valves. So yesterday I filled my tire and the light goes off, get on the highway and the light starts flashing for about 4 miles and then turns off. Any ideas?

Lots of folks here (including me) have had to replace their windshield, some more than once. I just bumped the 'Replacement Windshield' thread back to page 1 so you can find it and read it over. Two posts by atlanta10 on Feb 12th and Feb 14th on that thread seem to offer hope for an economical solution.

The TPMS system is sort of tricky. After it is triggered, and you have filled the tire that triggered the the alarm, it sometimes takes several miles of driving before it goes off. I don't recall seeing it blink during those miles, but if it stays off now, it is fine. But you must find where you are losing air, or this thing will drive you crazy.

Def check out the thread lightonthehill posted. For the tire leak just take it to a tire place and have them check it out. Coudl be a nail. If ur real **** get a patch/plug combo. If not like I am just plug it nd ur good to go.

Flashing TPMS light indicates system malfunction or unrecognized sensor. I had it after my dealership replaced one of the rims. Brought the car back, they gave me some bs about reprogramming and how sometimes it takes more than once. Was ok ever since though.
I also have a small leak in one of my wheels. The sensor trips once in coupe of weeks. Once I fill the air back up, it turns off on the highway.
