I have a 2006 Jetta TDI and was wondering if it is possible for me to add a tire pressure monitor because I don't think mine came with one and I know manufacturers usually have everything there to hook up to. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

 

you can add tire pressure monitors, not all vw models has this feature..this will alert you to low tire pressure..threrefore preventing your vw wheel bearings to break..

 

you can add tpms, tire pressure monitoring system , not cheap , not cheap at all to do, although check and see if you do have it installed first, one way is look at your valve stem on the wheel , if its metal with a silver nut then it does have it , if its just a rubber stem you may have a band sensor attached to the inside of the wheel, other then that , take it back to the dealer

 

I am buying a set of rims that have tpms on each rim. Is there a way to add this to my dash lights?can I get a dash from a junk yard and install?Where does the signal come from? Computer?
Thanks Art

 

Direct TPMS assess a tire's genuine force. Current direct schemes use a gauge climbed on to exhaust valve. This gauge drives a signal to the car's computer. When you see the warning light from a direct system, believe it and immediately check your exhaust pressures.

 

You can add TPMS on the later models it may depend on which ABS module you have fitted.

I just had 2 rear tires on my 08 Fit replaced. Pep Boys busted the TPMS sensor on one wheel. The manager wasn't around so the issue is still being resolved, but I just noticed on my bill, it looks like they installed "DILL Tire Pressure Monitoring System Component Kit", Qty: 2. That makes me think they put in 2 new sensors for the 2 rear wheels.
