Model 3 TPMS

[khizrs]

Has anyone ever purchased model 3 tpms sensors? I bought a new set of wheels and need an additional set of them.

Any progress on this? A set of ebay is about the same price as a single sensor from Tesla.

Would be nice to save £200 if possible!

I purchased a set of wheels for my winter setup from Gavin Wallace (he did the Facebook group buy and is still selling wheels) and he supplied me with i-Sensor TPMS modules. They work flawlessly for me.

Hi, I have 4 Huf TPMS suitable for OEM wheels. I bought them to use with aftermarket winter rims but they didn't fit. Paid £180 for them from TPMS Warehouse who won't take them back. So depends what rims you have.

The Costco fitters assembled all four of them ready to go but actually broke the seal on one of them - this is replaceable I'm told but not checked further as they don't fit my wheels! So 3 are fine, one needs a new valve seal but I'd let them go for £100 + postage. If you look on the TPMS Warehouse site, they are the Huf (orange) ones designed for Model 3. Let me know if interested. If not I'll store them up in case I ever need to change the existing ones on the 20" OEM rims.

I bought them from tirerack in USA. They looked identical to OEM. They are Continental 433Hz.

Note there are two types of TPMS.

Fixed Frequency (433Hz).
Or Universal that needs the TPMS Unit Programmed (by someone). Some places will program them for you. These are often cheaper.

The Car needs NO PROGRAMMING. It will sense they are missing and prompt for TPMS Reset when you drive.
Or you can force a Reset.

You might need to change tire size.

How much were they, do you know?

Just looked and I believe it was £188 for the four of them.

Tesla charge £70.80 per sensor, so £283.20 for four meaning quite a saving if you go third party.

Tesla Model 3 2017+ Replacement TPMS Sensor

Fitted these to the standard 20” wheels and they work perfectly. Car picked them up within a couple of miles and no problems at all.

Yes, these were the ones I bought initially and mentioned above - just didn't fit the after-market wheels unfortunately. Still for sale with £85 saving if anyone wants them.

I think I'm going to cheap-out
and try these:-

or these:-

I'd avoid these really cheap ones.

It's not an easy part to switch out so I wouldnt mess aroudn with it.
