I would start the sensor list, but quattro4awd bought the same sensors I did and his don't work yet! It sounds like they are either wrong or faulty though, by the "failed to calibrate" message. I feel like I should wait on recommending those until we know what's up. The Velospinner brand only seem to be available in the USA anyways.
quattro4awd: Yup if you don't see any IDs in there, they aren't learning. That's why I don't reccomend programming the IDs, at least from what I know right now. the IDs showing up is your clue that the sensors are good, the learning worked. But of course it's not working in your case...
One thing to try here...sounds simple, but connect OrBit, and reset the VCM. ECU Tools tab, choose VCM in Active ECU dropdown, click the "Reset ECU" button. This one will cause OrBit to reconnect (the VCM is the diagnostic gateway). You'd be surprised...the ECUs can run a long time with some software fault, and if the car never loses power like a flat battery or such, the "troubled" ECU can run a looooong time wit some little fault in running memory or such, otherwise working fine. I get to see all the wierd stuff via supporting OrBit, and it pops up from time to time, sometimes ECUs that were working fine, no faults in the car, but yet don't respond at all to diagnostics when OrBit is connected, in some cases reset doesn't even work, only disconnect/reconnect battery or pull the ECU fuse will "reboot" it and bring it back to good.
Anyways, it might not fix anything but worth a try!
