Hi,

 

Can anyone advise please.  Just about to replace all 4 tyres and was wondering about TPMS and whether any replacement TPMS sensors are require.  Reason I ask is that I got a quote from KwikFit and the shopping cart mentions about a "new valve" or "New valve with TPMS Stem Servicing kit".  Needless to say I want to make sure I'm not fleeced 🙂

 

Cheers,

Paul

 

There are no TPMS Valve Sensors fitted.

The car uses the ABS system to know if the circumference of the tyres change much from what they are registered at when you set the TPMS.

 

Tell the fitter the pressure to put your tyres to and you reset the TPMS. 

 

New valves should not be much on your invoice, i hope no more than £1.50 each.  Do they maybe take £15 per tyre fitting, valves and balancing?

If you had new Sensors you would notice just how much they charged you.
