The TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System) is an electronic system that is designed to monitor the air pressure in your tyres. A TPMS warning light should display on your dashboard when your tyre pressure is too low. You may experience a tyre blow out if your tyre pressure is too low and the TPMS system helps to prevent this from happening.
If you have an illuminated TPMS warning light on your dashboard, this indicates a tyre pressure drop in one (or more) of your tyres and needs your immediate attention. Alternatively, the sensor light may be on due to a sensor malfunction (usually due to battery failure or physical damage), which needs to be repaired as soon as possible. All brand new vehicles manufactured since 2014 come with TPMS as standard. If you have a faulty TPMS sensor you could also result in you receiving an immediate failure for the MOT.
When your tyres are at the correct pressure, it does decrease the cost in the fuel you use and also helps the life of the tyre to last longer. The majority of TPMS systems use a sensor which is attached to the back of the tyre valve which detects if your tyre pressure is low. There are some occasions when the sensors will also need to be replaced and re-programmed to your vehicle, our experienced fitters can also provide this service for you and source the sensors and valve if you required them to.
For only £60, we will come out to you at your location, whether it be at work or home, and we will repair your TPMS including fitting new sensors and re-programme it to your vehicle.
If your TPMS light has come on in your vehicle give us a call and one of our friendly fitters will book an appointment with you to come and see you and check your TPMS.
Had a tyre pressure light on. Thought I'd try Driveway Tyres. Turned up at appointed time and was able diagnose the problem. Had to have a new sensor fitted. Happened to have the correct replacement on the van and it was fitted there and then by Jon. Excellent service and competitively priced, will definitely use this company again and will be recommending to friends and family.
YellowCork15-1 - 5 ★ YellBit of a late review so sending my apologies! I phoned driveway tyres about two weeks ago to book an appointment to change my flat tyre I spoke to a lovely man called Mark who sorted everything for me he rang me back when he said he would and wasn’t pushy in making me choose the most expensive option etc (which puts me off as a customer) he even recommended a puncture repair but I said I’d rather a brand new one. The same day around midday (I called at 8:30am) John arrived outside my house at the exact time he said he would and within 30-45 mins he’d changed my tyre and checked the pressure on all the other ones! He even went to the lengths of showing me the cause of my flat tyre (a piece of glass had pierced through).... fab service, highly recommend, first time using driveway tyres and definitely won’t be the last!! Thank you very much Mark and John for your fab customer service couldn’t fault it ??
Carys James - 5 ★ FacebookThey were very friendly, honest and quick to respond. I had a puncture that was not only repaired in good time but was repaired instead of having to have a new tyre on their recommendation. Absolutely great service and value for money.
