I got new TPMS, but you don’t have to. The car’s pressure monitoring will work off just the wheel speed sensors. I got individual sensors because this car has always had the per wheel pressures and I wanted to keep that. I think a lot of the COVID cars dropped that feature

Thank you for the explanation. Would you happen to know the part no. for the TPMS?

Finally got around to installing my old summer set from my late S6 (still makes me weepy to think about). Overall I’m happy with the look - could benefit from some more rubber but these tires are basically brand new so I’m gonna run them for at least this season before considering replacing with some larger sidewalls.

setting is on stock dynamic. Could benefit from some more lowering and some chrome delete but I’m good for now.

Well unfortunately last night I got the TPMS error. I’m super frustrated because I had an extensive conversation with my local Audi service department who assured me that I wouldn’t need sensors and the system would leverage the passive sensors in the absence of if active sensors in each wheel. I guess they were wrong and now I’ll be on the hunt for sensors.

This is what I have ordered:

https://www.audionlineparts.com/oem-...kit-5q0998270f

https://www.audionlineparts.com/oem-...bly-3aa998275a


The first are the sensors, and the second are the sensor/valve assembly for each wheel.

yikes! I assume that’s per wheel? Thinking I should have just left the original set on!

I had the OEM ones removed from my newly purchased 2022 Allroad and had them installed in the 21's wheels I upgraded to with no issue. The price should be around $260-300 for a set of four.
