06 model didnt come with tps senors dealer told me... the light was off and its been off this is a new problem...abs came on and the tire light flashes cars without warrenty so i cant have it checked out and i have a obd2 engine code reader but it doesnt see any codes...i think its only a engine reader

Correct, 06 does not have TPS, it uses the ABS sensor to read wheel speed and checks that against what it thinks the wheel speed should be (for stock sized rims and tires). To reset it for new sized wheels and tires, hold down the TPMS button in the glove box till the (!) light flashes 3 times. if that doesnt fix it pull the negative lead off the battery (car off ofcourse) and let it sit for about a min, then put it back on. If the lights come back on after that one of your abs sensors may be on the way out.

what is stated above about tire pressure monitoring system in the tc is correct. however, if it was just a simple tire pressure issue, then just the tire pressure warning light would be on. but since the ABS light is on, that means there is something wrong either with the wheel speed sensor(s) or the ABS control module or something else brake related and it needs to be checked out.

Agreed. Did some more reading up on it today and it seems like the issue is indeed that a wheel speed sensor isnt giving data in an acceptable frequency (means wheel speed sensor is going bad or is dirty). I would take it into the dealer as these affect the ABS system and thats something you dont want to have be erratic/malfunctioning.
