Hi guys,

I've hopefully got a set of BBS CH-Rs coming end of this week or early next week, so wouldn't mind getting some TPMS sensors ordered. I think Cotswold want something like £280 for a set of 4 which is crazy money so was wondering if there were any cheaper options.

I've seen some on eBay that seem to be the official BMW part for £125 (set of 4).

Cheers

You best bet is to find the part number you need using RealOEM, then searching for that part number ( BMW 01234567890 ) on ebay.de

Mine came from german ebay and appeared to be new. Think they were £110 all in.

Something like this??

They are the same part number as my ones.

Scrub that, can't see any on ebay.de currently.

Thanks Fraggle, I spotted those earlier but just wanted to make sure that buying them of eBay wasn't going to be an issue.

That set for £125 seems to be the best buy at the minute then? 36106856209 is definitely the part I'm after from looking at RealOEM.

Can these be retrofitted to any m135

No, your car needs to have left the factory with wheel sensor based tpms. OP, remember and get hold of a small torque wrench for fitting them, I'm sure it's something like 8nm or less they need.

Your car is too old, sorry.

If it's any help, I've used the TPMS system from TyrePal

http://www.tyrepal.co.uk/products/tb99-4-or-5-wheel-tpms

prior to getting my M135i and also used it for a while before getting the BMW sensors for my winter set of wheels.

The only downside is the PITA if you use the security option when fitting and removing the caps.
