but then, even if u replace it, it has to be reprogrammed to know it has been replaced. i guess have to go to brooklands...

The thing is I'm not so sure whether my C5 comes complete with TPMS. One of the tyres burst a few days later and I remembered I saw service warning and beeping sound from the Instrument Cluster. After that, I just replaced all 4 tyres.

When I started to read more about this C5, I suspect that I might have thrown away my TPMS like that.

I see. Since I don't see any fault indication, I suppose mine doesn't come with TPMS. In that case, I will go find a set of TPMS to install.

Thank you very much.

Dear bro begin
I may have read an old expensive technology. For that technology which I read since I know Citroen incorporates ecu and the sensor requires wireless calibration. From your you always manage to find cheap alternative solution. I watching this treadclosely now

I'm likely to go with a 3rd party TPMS. I chance upon this one at the ebay and is considering getting it:

Dear bro. Nice to know that link, good to install on my wife car, and i don't have to pump the Tyre every week, most of the pumps at the petrol station does not give similar readings. I wonder whether the pressure transducer needs battery and it needs one can I get it easily.
