Changing wheels over
Evening peps
Starting to fit some H&R wheel spacers tonight , tyres been worn at back , going to change them to front move wear tyre at back , would this affect the TPMS ??

Re: Changing wheels over
You'll need to reset TPMS in the DIS (wheel change option then set pressures) once you've swapped over and that's it.

didnt think the car was that clever to know pressures,
thought it flagged up when a pressure went below a your set value, and doesnt know which tyre it is
Re: Changing wheels over
I wasn't quite sure if it dose know exact wheel ! Only cos I seen some1 on the forum selling winter wheels but there bag up in each individual location bag !
Re: Changing wheels over
Happy days job done !!
Re: Changing wheels over
Good job. Get some more pictures up in the daylight.
Re: Changing wheels over
Will do on sat ! After a good clean and wheel alignment
Re: Changing wheels over
There's a sensor for each wheel that register the pressure from the nearest sensor - I understand that it also picks up the "code" from sensor itself, hence if it doesn't see that it assumes a dead battery / sensor.Rick_RS4 wrote:DALO wrote:You'll need to reset TPMS in the DIS (wheel change option then set pressures) once you've swapped over and that's it.

That's why there's both a wheel change option (ie assumes new sensors and TPMS a re-learns them) and a pressure set option (same sensors but different pressure learning) in DIS

Re: Changing wheels over
I thought that there was just one antennae, behind the honeycomb panel on the rear bumper. I didn't think the system could identify between wheel positions but does learn the 4 sensors codes that are appropriate to your car so that if there are other active pressure sensors in range it ignores those.
Wheel change is for when you have changed sensors due to different wheels or new sensors so that the system knows to search again. IIRC I think there is a comment in the manual that when using this feature you take care that there are no other active sensors in range.

Re: Changing wheels over
You will have to change the pressures as they are different front to rear so I would just use the "wheel change" option in the DIS or I think there is "store pressures" option which allows for adjustments for more/less load etc. I doubt it notices a "low" tyre just a change from the stored value so I could quite see it seeing the 4 tyres being correct even though the front & rear have changed if you didn't change the pressures.
