Re: Quick tire question
Removing the sensor and using “old school” tire gauge. It’s an option for many.
it wasn’t an option for me
I opted to replace mine with OEM from the dealer. The car doesn’t have a spare and I do a lot of highway driving. For me it’s piece of mind. If I’m on the road and the TPMS Light comes on, I can pull over and assess the situation or it gives me time to stop for service. (AAA)
I spent $1300 refinishing my wheels and would hate to ruin one because I didn’t know it was losing air.
If you’re keeping the car for a few years, the sensors will last 10 years it’s a good investment.
driving on the rim doesn’t appeal to me and as indicated above we don’t run spares in these cars. There is a jack, an outdated fill canister BUT NO TIRE
A dealer with the correct equipment can tell you which one isn’t working. If you’re replacing one, best to replace all four and the same time.
