Need TPMS??? Wheel swap.

BlueBimmer · 08-15-2012, 12:49 PM

Wheels going from a 2006 325i to a 2009 335i - both cars have a tire pressure alert - but I read here that there are different types of TPMS?

Can this swap work or is buying/transferring TPMS needed?

Thanks!

An '06 would not have had TPMS it used a flat tire monitor that was based on wheel rotation, The '09 has an active TPMS system with sensors.
