SAAB 9-5 New Generation and TPMS - How does it work and are there cheaper TPMS sensors out there? 

Finally a new video. I have aftermarket tpms sensors and US car imported back to EU. Let's see how fitting those to my summer wheels will turn out. I'm hoping to visit Saab Festival 2022 with my 9-5 Turbo6.

I have a 2010 9-5 aero and I get a warning on my dash saying check tire monitor system and I have no idea how to get this to stop popping up, any help ?

I dont have tpms sensors in my 2010 NG but i didnt get any messages in the dash untill i changed the battery. Now every time i start the car, a message pops up "winter tires recognized" is there a Solution to that message? Or will it just disappear after a few hundred miles and multiple starts? Im just wondering because before i changed the battery no messages poped up =)

1,200 Swedish Krona = $140 dollars USD. Wow that is expensive for one sensor!

Hello guys, the video looked like interesting in the beginning, but with all the due respect, you said wrong information and did the wrong procedure. First of all, most of cars that have TPMS have DIRECT system and not INDIRECT system (you said the opposite in the video); Second of all, when you want to do a diagnosis on the sensors installed on the cars, you should get the tool close to the tire shoulder (as the ANTENNA is inside tool). Keeping the distance like you did it's wrong, because if you work with a Toyota you could read another sensor without realizing it (as they have LF). Third: if you want to do copy and paste, you must do it from the OE sensors of your car; if you do copy and paste from your friend's car, you should follow the relearn procedure (as in the car ECU are registered the OE sensors ID and you're cloning completely new IDS). The relearn procedure doesn't depend on the region (Europe or American) it depends on the car manufacturer. Most of cars (more than 70%) have Auto relearn or manual relearn; the rest have OBD relearn. The Japanese and Korean cars mostly work in OBD. If you have Toyota Yaris and you install 4 new sensors doing auto create, try to let it work in auto relearn...as well as, you couldn't program the sensors without deflating 'cause the sensors you're using are really old model, so is the tool. Most of aftermarket sensors can be programmed with tires inflated. I'm saying you all of this because I work a TPMS technician and it's important to share the right information. Regards

TPMS sensors are GENERIC... just like o2 sensors. These vary from ~10$ each for cheap Chinese ones to 70$ for Eu ones. ONLY real difference is the quality of the batteries fitted to them during Mfg.. Better ($$$) sensors claim 10 yr life bats. Reality is one can reasonably expect 8 to 9 yrs. Cheap ones live a year or so. That said TPMS are a Foolish affectation, being semi accurate... At Best.. and fairly troubleprone. What kind of an Idiot needs a dash readout to advise that a tire is flat ??
