I'm happy that I chose to visit the car dealer because my colleague mentioned that it was as easy as attaching a new one purchased from the automotive parts store. I might have considered taking it to a local tire repair shop, but they likely wouldn't have been aware of how to prevent any harm to the sensor.
Tip.when doing rubber tpms stems snip some cuts in the bottom of the stem.itll pop out better .i pop the sensor on before i pull it through so you dont have to worry about turning the stem after.but good video
Good video, I have a problem with leaking valve stem losing about 5pounds in 10 days, (have done the soapy water test and it bubbles up if left for a while) its a tpm sensor valve and the stem has been replaced 3 times by the tyre fitter, and it's quite a pita, I'm gonna have to get it looked at again! Have been thinking, could a tyre sealant help in this instance which I could install or would that be a waste money for this. Am also think of replacing the whole tpm sensor along with the stem. Your thoughts please..
I just had new tires on my 2012 taurus and now suddenly i have leaking valve stems. Belle Tire never suggested replacing the stems when the tires were off the rims. Now I have to take the car back in to get the stems replaced. Sure sounds like a scam to me! Suddenly my stems leak... Unreal! Ive given them 1100. already and now they want more. Bull crap!
Mines just unscrewed itself when I was going to get air ….jus what my luck and I couldn’t get help from nobody I had to take it while the tire was flat to a tire shop 🤦🏾♂️jus my dang day
Thanks brother. My stupid coworker/roommate didn't check this part before putting my tire back on my car. I was thinking I did something wrong like buy the wrong tire. But nope
ISUZU, regular maintenance at Tang Park Thailand. Never any problems within 10 years, 200,000km. Except loosing some air pressure over night, sometimes, irregular, 4 wheels. Now at rainy season the tyres (new and older) get beaten hard from unexpected wide deep potholes.
