tyre pressure monitoring system

I once had a problem with one of the valves (TPMS). I´ve seen what they did after changing (after two days of waiting, because they had to order the special TPMS for my Camaro). They had a small machine - they went around the car - and had to do with everyone of the TPMS´s - each TPMS was introduced to the car computer - and the car quitted each with a short horn - when ready, the car horn did twice.
You see what there is happening, and you think - "WTF - it´s like science fiction - my car is talking to the valves - or are the valves talking to my computer?" MODERN TIMES! :eek:
I hope there won´t be too much electronic games in the INEOS!

Is there any info on exactly what TPMS sensors are used on the Grenadier? I looked in the online manual and it does not list a type or part number, it only really mentions they use RFID.

There is a UK aftermarket site that shows this as suitable, any idea if correct?

Saw that picture earlier in the thread but what are the specs? Searching the part number A2C82208304 suggests that it is a VDO 72-20-063, pictures of those show 433Mhz so does that mean any 433Mhz TPMS will work with the Grenadier?

Not sure that. was on display at UKevent with the wheel and tire options
 
It is amazing how the current technology is able to dramatically and quickly cut the cost of complicate and smart devices. When Porsche introduced the 959, they implemented the Bosch tire pressure monitoring system. It was one of the first tire monitoring system introduced in the real world. If I remember well replacing a sensor costed at that time something like 3000 euro...
 
can share some experience with the TPMS:
last weekend I lowered pressure to 1.5bar for offroading. The display is comfortable to check pressure for all 4 tyres at one glance. In offroad mode low pressure warning was constantly displayed, not just the warning text but 4 pressure values; see picture. Not absolutely needed but I can live with that.
After the event when airing up each value changed from orange to green at ca 2.5 bar.
Only one sensor stayed orange with same value 🤔 (German: Reifendruck niedrig). See second picture.
Had to drive with this error since then. Switch off and lock car has not solved the error. Anybody has some information on how to reset the TPMS. If I remember correctly not mentioned in the manual.

Hello Deepblue,
you have to go into "Einstellungen", than "Fahrzeuginformationen", than "Reifendruck": Here you can reset the pressure warning.

Many thanks for your swift reply @Adventures
Could now reset; error is still there. Tomorrow will air down the tire, air up and then reset again.
 
Maybe trying going the opposite way and over inflate, run gently/leave for a period and then deflate to the correct value?
 
Just to make sure it is not a user error:
KO2 17“ need a pressure of 2,5 bar on ‚cool‘ parked empty vehicle, right?

So when camper build is done an car fully loaded, I go for 3,0 and 3,4 in the back.

Should be a no brainer, but ….

Thanks.

Wonder why they felt the need to divide the tyre specs in to two boxes when one would've sufficed. Seems like unnecessary duplication because all four tyre types have the same recommended pressures in light or heavy mode.

Probably regulatory.
 
Many thanks to Spjnr for going out of his way yesterday to show me his new Grenadier and also his wheel/tyre combo, which I must say looks tiptop. Came away very envious indeed!
The car is in MM and looked bloody marvellous. Really didn't help my sick of waiting syndrome but did cement my positive vibes for the car.

So, with his help I am slowly building my own Gren by the looks of it - starting off with a 5 set of the 17" steels, so I will need to find a suitable set of TPMSs for these 2nd set for my M/T.
I've sent IA a message asking them to confirm the TPMS make and model they are using, and also whether these can be purchased from them directly (via Jardines) or whether, as suspected, it's the usual sh1t show and I need take care of procuring them myself. Also asked how to delete the old/introduce the new sensors to the car.

If any of the gurus have thoughts on the TPMS then tks in advance.
