TPM sensors

Continental Commercial Vehicles & Aftermarket, maker of VDO TPMS replacement parts, has added a third multi-application TPMS sensor to its line of Redi-Sensors. The addition expands the total application coverage to over 80% of TPMS-equipped vehicles on the road today in North America.

According to Steve Landis, VDO TPMS product manager, shops that carry these three TPMS sensor part numbers can handle practically every domestic and import vehicle that comes in for TPMS service.

He says VDO Redi-Sensor is the seamless, multi-application solution for TPMS service, providing a broad range of coverage for cars, vans, SUVs, crossovers and light trucks from 2002 – 2012 and beyond. Every VDO Redi-Sensor is OE-validated, comes pre-programmed and is ready to use out of the box. VDO Redi-Sensor works with all major TPMS scan tools and is designed to follow existing OE vehicle relearn procedures.

“With VDO Redi-Sensor, we’re constantly researching and validating new vehicle applications daily – ensuring that our Redi-Sensor coverage continues to grow and our customers are ready to take advantage of all service opportunities,” he says.

Overall coverage for the Redi-Sensor line now includes: Chrysler, Ford, GM, Honda, Hummer, Hyundai, Isuzu, Kia, Lexus, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Scion, Suzuki, and Toyota.

VDO Redi-Sensor Multi-Application TPMS Sensors are pre-programmed, so there is no need for new training or specialized programming tool investments. They come ready to use right out of the box and with very few exceptions, relearn to the vehicle in the exact same way as the OE sensors. The Redi-Sensor sensors are OE-validated for fit, function and reliability. These sensors can be used by themselves or in combination with OE sensors on a vehicle.
