$300? A TPS sensor replacement should cost like $75 including the sensor itself.
About $300 is what the mechanics in the area usually charge. The dealership is more.
$70 at Discount Tire.
Each?!?!
Fuck that. I'll pay $300 for the set and let them do the work for me. LOL
Yeah, $70 for one sensor installed is pretty cheap. Is your $300 number for all 4? Because that's more expensive than Discount Tire's price...
They are like 50 bucks for all 4 tires on ebay. Just get a wheel shop to install it.
or...just look at the tyres ?
Yeah bro let me just eyeball the difference between 32 psi and 36 psi with my fucking laser eyes.
That's complete robbery. Go to a tire shop.
A tire pressure sensor sensor? And the tire pressure sensor sensor includes the sensor itself? 😉
TPMS = Tire Pressure Monitoring System
So yes, "TPMS sensor" is a valid term.
