New 2011 Fit Sport Owner!

Hey Guys,
Last week I purchased a Beautiful 1 owner 2011 Sport AT, with 119k on the odometer. I traveled 350 miles to buy the car, an so far I'm super pleased with it. I got a great deal, from a dealership, and its in Black, my favorite color. I have already changed the transmission fluid (Honda OEM) , and filter, as well as changed and replaced the coolant. All other service is up to date, except the last owner has not yet changed the ignition coil packs, or done the valve adjustment. Are these two things noticeable to the driver when done? Also, I knocked the price down at the dealership to buy this car because the "TPMS" light was on, which didn't bother me at all, because TPMS is federally mandated garbage, which as intelligent human being with 5 senses, I have no use for. Is there any way to block the LEDs in the dash cluster so I don't so this annoying light? Thanks for the responses

The TPMS needs to be calibrated if the car sits for awhile - when I bought my 2010 it had that issue right of the lot and the dealer just reset it. Having TPMS has been a life saver for me as I always seem to find a nail or a screw to stick my tires. After the reset it has been very reliable and useful
