- SL500 (R230) 2003 4966cc
My SL500 is currently fitted with the standard 17" alloy wheels. The car has TPMS fitted from new (from 2003). The TPMS appears to be operating as it should on all wheels. It's showing 2.1 bar at each wheel and there is no warning message. However my local CostCo have checked them over using a special meter and they tell me that only 2 of them are operating correctly.
I have recently purchased a set of used 18" MB Avior wheels from a forum member - thanks once again Simon. These wheels don't have the TPMS sensors fitted.
I was going to get CostCo to fit me a new set of Michelin Pilot Sport 3 tyres and they would have been prepared to swap the sensors over onto the new wheels at no charge.
Not sure what to do. TPMS is not that important to me, but would prefer to keep it if working. I'd appreciate advice or learning members experiences.
