Volkswagen engineers vehicles with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System continuously measuring tire inflation while sending pressure readings to the onboard diagnostic system and dashboard. The TPMS requires a few components to monitor air pressures and send the readings to the onboard diagnostic system. Tire pressure monitoring involves sensors, batteries, and radio transmitters that lose integrity with use, exposure, and damage. TPMS service starts with an inspection/diagnosis to verify the problem and formulate a repair recommendation.
TPMS sensors at each tire provide the inflation readings. These sensors work with a battery and transmitter to function correctly. The sensors with batteries and transmitters spin 1,000 times or more at highway speeds. They also experience the same handling forces as the wheels during driving incidents such as hitting potholes. Sensor replacement is the most common repair needed to restore the TPMS to specifications.
Drivers should know the warning signs of a faulty TPMS. Contact us for a TPMS inspection/diagnosis and repair service if you notice:
