Not all OEM wheels have TPMS sensors, so don't assume the shop will know this little detail...
No valve stem replacement should be necessary if it's metal. (unless you have noticed a slow air leak from the valve stem itself) |
LMB,
OK, so it's looking like I may be screwed. I bought a set of TPMS sensors from a Canadian guy who bought a set of OEM 19s from a US guy. He didn't need the TPMS, so he removed them and offered them for sale.
They look completely new and unblemished, and the valve necks are present, but the dill valves are not there. Are you saying, these are not likely to work?
