Re: Free to anyone. 3 used tyre pressure sensors (one broken)

So, just realised (with blu tacked pressure sensor on the tyre) that the sensors don't report wheel speed.
So still couldn't say if they work.

Re: Rear brake discs

Might have answered my own question.
The pads are too thick.
There are a variety of thicknesses out there.

Re: Rear brake discs

Actually two washers. About 5mm. I guess no-one zoomed in an saw my half arsed galve paint. Lol. I think they'll rust up quite quick. Quick one. I'm trying to fit some front Kinetix discs (33.9mm) and Stark pads, (17.5mm) but can't get both side pads in. It's one side or the other. I bought 2 sets o...

Re: Rear brake discs

Should have been obvious that it wouldn't go on with carrier on.
Needs spacing. Duh.

Re: Rear brake discs

Hold on kids. Don't buy these just yet. I'm in the middle of trying to fit some. The pcd seems ok, as does the hub centre diameter. Just trying to work out why these won't go on far enough and mate with the the bolt flange. I can see that the offset (from rear of disc flange face to edge of disc)is ...

Re: Free to anyone. 3 used tyre pressure sensors (one broken)

Ok. I found them.
I can't get any of them to register with vcds, but also cant replicate a full rotation.
Saying that, just realised I could have stuck them to the tyre.
So RS620, they're yours if you want them.

Re: Free to anyone. 3 used tyre pressure sensors (one broken)

Well, the family and a friend have been dragged in to "think like me" as to where I would have put them. Up to now, no bueno. Checked the garage, all cars, house, summer house and both sheds, nothing. Even went through the bins. Really bugging me, this. If I find them, I'll check if they work and re...

Re: Free to anyone. 3 used tyre pressure sensors (one broken)

This might take a while.
I'm at a loss where the hell I put them after taking photos.

Re: Free to anyone. 3 used tyre pressure sensors (one broken)

I can't guarantee that they work.
Not sure if I disabled the system due to a fault or when they put a standard valve in.
Does anyone know how I could test them?

Re: Free to anyone. 3 used tyre pressure sensors (one broken)

Nice one. Unfortunately they'd already got the tyres back on after the refurb.
So looks like I'll be monitoring myself.
At least the beads will be something I don't have to worry about.

Re: Free to anyone. 3 used tyre pressure sensors (one broken)

I know what you both mean.
I guess we all probably grew up without them though, so most of the time, the old checking physically works for me.
It is nice to have a monitor though.
I've looked at some aftermarket ones.
Those £80 ones. Where they from?
