TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System)

[jimaroquai]

Good day people,

Sino po ang may alam kung saan makakabili ng TPMS. Ito yung nilalagay sa mga tires at remotely pinadadala ang pressure sa monitor through a transmitter. If I am not mistaken, Mitsu Adventure Super Sport is equipped with this one. Yung iba po kasi idiot sensor lang na naka tap sa ABS kung saan di mo alam which tire ang kulang sa hangin.

Thanks for the info.

Sa Ford Libis may naka-display sila. Same din ng sa Mitsu.

Sorry po, hindi ko nacheck ang price. Ibang items po kasi ang kinuha ko.

Malamang mahal yun, kasi dealership ang nagbebenta.

Yung sa Paj FM ko di na accurate iba iba ang reading kahit iisa sukat sa pressure guage sa gas station.

the first mitsu to carry this was the fieldmasters. anyway, yes, it is inaccurate but it can still help show you if a flat suddenly occurs, based on personal experience. i think winterpine is the one supplying mitsu philippines with this.

yung sensor for each tire attaches to the end of the air valve that goes into the inside of the rim.

Anybody know anything about the ones in Toyotas? Bagong option lang ata ito, sells for around P12,000.

the tpms is the whole system. if you need the in-tire sensor, you need to replace all four if you can not find the exact replacement. most of them need to be reprogrammed while installed on the car with a special sensor "training" tool to synchronize the frequency with the cars signal receiver

[blued888]

Are these sensors very prone to damage when changing tires?

So it has to be reprogrammed each and every time particularly when you change tires? Can this be done by the user/owner or the casa alone?

I've read that Mitsubishi's TPMS can be reset by the user/owner.

the tpms sensor is sensitive to water in the tire from undry air supply tanks. it is also sensitive to the "fix-a-flat" tire sealer/inflator. if the tires had to be replaced, the sensor does not retraining. the tire technician should be very careful though as these sensor/transmitter are susceptible to damage when demounting and mounting tires

Complicated pala. Will have to think twice about getting this now. Thanks.

On the good side of the TPMS, it helps me monitor the tire pressure. For those with TPMS, change you air tires with nitrogen. It is about accurate possible....

i did not realize the usefulness of the TPMS until i had it

when i filled up with nitrogen, i put the ignition key to "ON", switch the MIS display to the TPMS and use this to monitor the nitro being filled. i rely more on this than the manual gauge to determine my tire pressure

it has become my habit to check the TPMS prior to driving and during the drive when i am at the stop light. it gives the PSI and tire temperature reading

^ by using nitrogen, it would definitely be as accurate as possible.

+1 *Ry_Tower. I'm one of the happy user of TPMS for my Strada using nitrogen. .

Meron thread dito sir sa tsikot regarding sa mga autoshops na may nitrogen. Search mo lang sir.

[armscor40]

if i may sir, you can visit any goodyear servitek shops, sm tire depot & other tire shops that do sales & service...mostly they have becoz of its demand na...priced at 50 or 75 - 100 pesos per tire depends on the shop usually w/ free refill afterwards...HTH

For those who had this installed (meaning, it did not come pre-installed when you purchased car), from whom did you source?
