Tpms

Post by Shinobi675 » Sat Jul 09, 2016 12:10 am

Hi guys,

So my c6 had pressure and temperature readout in the mmi for tyre pressures from the tpms.

But the b8 only does a pressure warning. Is this because it's an option I don't have and all I have is the basic?

If so, can it be retro fitted?

AFAIK the B8 TPMS is ABS wheel speed sensor based, not an in-wheel pressure/temperature sensor.

Yer I did some more digging and I think you're right. Shame. Was useful at the ring to control the temperatures.

Ah well, not a biggy :)
