Default Can TPMS be turned off?

I want to run a spare set of wheels minus the monitors. Is it possible?

Default Newb question - what's VAG-COM...

My RS4 hasn't crossed the ocean yet and I've never owned an Audi before. Is it the internal diagnostic system that's accessible via port - or is it an external device that communicates with the car via port? In any case, how do you learn to do things like disable TMPS?

Default Diagnostics Program by Ross Tech

lets you see what the computer is recording in terms of fault codes and lets you modify certain functions.

Look through the website and look through the audi forum for Vag-com https://forums.audiworld.com/vag/<ul><li><a href="http://www.ross-tech.com/">Link</a></li></ul>
