Later Kizashi Issues

2010 Kizashi owner here with 106k of mostly trouble free miles; bought it at 14k miles, some insight...
Steering wheel lock issue- When you get the dreaded “Turn wheel...” push the start button to turn off the car; then open the drivers door to engage the steering wheel lock, hold the wheel or jiggle it while closing the driver door. Should start no problem.
Replacing TPMS sensors- Get them replaced; as they are probably due by 2019. The tire shop put in VDO Redi-sensors in mine. Tell them don’t worry about programming (they probably have no clue how anyway- or the Suzuki tool.) Get the EL-50448 TPMS trigger tool on Amazon for $15 and follow the drivers door button procedure on this site, complete as described and voila.
I’ve had complete success. Love my Zuki!!!
