Which non OEM TPMS

TonM3 · 07-11-2020, 04:15 PM

I am getting a second set of wheels for my '17M240 and want to buy good quality but cheaper than OEM sensors.
Huge range in price for 433 MHz sensors
Please let me know your suggestions.

I got these and they worked perfectly. Plug & Play.

I think they're made by VDO/Continental.

I was considering those. There are ones for half the price, bit if they are continental it would be worth it.

Bumping this thread just wondering if there are any other suggestions for aftermarket TPMS sensors. Need a set for my new summer wheels. There are tons of cheap ones on Amazon but I don't think I would trust them. Suggestions for something between cheap Amazon ones and expensive official BMW ones and ideally shipped to Canada would be appreciated.

I've had a set of Autel MX - TPMS sensors on our Porsche Macan S winter wheels for the past season, they worked well and cost CAD$50 for each sensor from my go-to tyre fitter here in Calgary.

I used these in my winter wheels going on season 3 with them no issues at all and they where cheap

Are they the universal cloneable ones like these?

The price is certainly right, but I'd prefer something plug and play. I guess I should check with my tire shop to see if they can do cloning though.

Yes they are similar (I decided to get the ones with rubber valve stems), but they didn't need to be cloned as such. I just provided the tyre shop with my vehicle VIN and picked the new wheels and tyres up with the sensors already programmed for the Porsche, with nothing further to do other than a relearn by driving the Porsche after I put the winter set on a couple of months later.

Just to update the thread, I ended up ordering these.

https://www.tpmsbargains.com/Huf-Int...056-2-hufm.htm

This is a great sale price in the US, and even with US-CAD exchange and shipping they will work out to about $200CAD for the set, and I've checked the part number with my dealership - 36106881890 (replacement for 36106856209).

Could have bought generic Chinese ones on Amazon for less, but I'm pretty comfortable these will just work.
