Anyone ever try these

I just need some TPMS sensors that work, My Check system light wont go off until i have all 4 of them on and programmed. Oem is way too expensive

just looking for a set that will work and make the light go away

 

I picked up a a set of these a couple months ago, I recently got them program with no problems. You will need to buy a TMPS repair kit, because these do not come with the nut that holds it on to the wheel

 

where can i get those?

 

from the same seller=) they have another seller on ebay. that has the tpms and the repair kit as a package deal. search around ebay.i got mine for $57 shipped of his auction. good lucj tokeris350=)

 

Yeah make sure you get the 216 kit and not the 217 repair kit.

If you can't find it on that seller's site, I got mine from here (a little more pricey ~$5-7):

found em



thanks guys

 

ahh we posted the same one just saw your post, but yeah thats fine ill get that set along with the other TPMS sensors, hopefully i have no problems

 

one last questions, did you guys take these TPMS sensors to lexus to get programmed?

 

sorry to hijack, when moving TPMS from OEM rims to aftermarket rims do I need to buy a new TPMS Service/repair kit for each sensor?

 

The kit comes with a set of 4, so you only need 1 kit.

 

My Lexus dealer wanted $250 to program them. So I called my local Goodyear and they said they could do it. They ended up not charging me, but they had quoted me $60, so either way it was much cheaper than Lexus.

You could always ask the a mechanic to do it on the side if you have other service to get done.

 

I wouldn't think you would need to buy a repair kit at all.

 

Thanks, i thought that only Lexus could program these sensors thats why.

 

I had my second set installed, mounted tires, balanced & programmed by Toyota for $99. I forget what the Lexus dealership wanted but it was much more for the same work.

I recently curbed one of my rims pretty bad, and I have a spare, just looking to see if I can have a tire shop just move the TPMS sensor over from the curbed rim to a new rim without needing a new maintenance/repair kit. I would think that they can reuse the one thats already there right? Can anyone else confirm?

 

Sorry to hijack OP part 2, but I have a question along the same lines.

I just bought a set of winters that came with TPMS sensors but weren't installed on the tires. I went to the dealership to get them put on installed and programmed, but when they tried to install the sensors, they said the sensors didn't fit onto the rims. Reading above, it sounds like I would just need to get the service kit...but would that likely solve the problem?

Reading around, it seems like theses sensors should work on aftermarket rims (these are 17" BSA Motorsport 5 spoke rims..don't know the model though) I just hope I won't have to see the light and warning message all winter :\
