Tyre Pressure Monitoring
Specialists
We diagnose tyre pressure monitoring faults, and program and replace sensors, on any vehicle with factory tyre pressure sensors. We also retrofit factory-integrated tyre pressure monitoring to selected VW, Ford and Mazda models, so pressures and temperatures show on your own instrument cluster. Appointments at our premises in Strubensvalley, Roodepoort, or mobile within 40 km.

Live tyre pressure information helps identify pressure loss early and gives you a clear view of each tyre while driving.
Identify Pressure Loss Early
Tyre pressure can decrease gradually without causing any obvious change in vehicle handling. As a result, significant underinflation may go unnoticed, leading to accelerated tyre wear, excessive heat build-up, and potential tyre failure before the issue is detected.
Monitor Pressure Under Different Loads
Vehicle manufacturers specify recommended tyre pressures for both normal and fully loaded operating conditions, typically displayed on the tyre information placard inside the driver’s door. A Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) shows the current pressure in each tyre, so you can confirm they are set correctly for the load you are carrying.
Confirm Pressure After Off-Road Driving
Reduced tyre pressures are often used to improve traction on sand, mud, and other loose surfaces. After off-road driving, pressures must go back to the manufacturer’s recommended road settings. With TPMS you can see each tyre’s pressure once you are moving again, so you know all four have been correctly reinflated.
