TPM
TPM
Hi, just trying to work our if am missing something on my B9.5. In the RS monitor on MMI the tyre pressure system is always unavailable. Checking the description of the TPM in the configurator it says 'Air pressures and temperatures of wheels can be displayed in the driver information system of in the audi virtual cockpit'
Re: TPM
Its possible that the system is not fitted as it was an option on the pre face lift

Re: TPM
The MyAudi App will reveal the spec of your vehicle.
TBH the TPM is a pants implementation - one could reasonably expect the software to compensate for tyre temperature (pressures rise as the tyres get warmer), however it doesn't so the pressure readings constantly change.

Re: TPM
Just look to see if your air valves are silver or black. Srd rubber black valves means you don't have the tpms system.
Re: TPM
Don’t they all have TPMS? But not all have the pressure display on MMI (which was an option on early cars IRRC).Dannyboy123 wrote: ↑Sun Apr 25, 2021 6:42 pmJust look to see if your air valves are silver or black. Srd rubber black valves means you don't have the tpms system.
Re: TPM
There are two kinds of TPMS, one uses the ABS sensors to determine if the tires rolling radius has changed (rubber valve stems) and the second, more expensive version (metallic valve stems) has sensor box in each wheel that wirelessly communicates temp and pressure data to a display in the virtual cockpit.

Re: TPM
All new cars have a tpms system by Law I think. There are two types though. A direct tpms system has sensors in the tyres and indirect uses the cars abs sensors to calculate the loss in pressure.Markp wrote: ↑Sun Apr 25, 2021 9:36 pmDon’t they all have TPMS?
