Any newer VW owners know If you put after market rims on say a 07 Jetta Wolfy without the TPS devices; would there be a really annoying indicator light dingy thing going off constantly. If so, could I pull a fuse to stop it?
Im not planning on putting bling blangin rims on the wifes commuter. I was just thinking about getting some black steely 15s with blizzaks for winter time. I can get the steelies and 15" tires for about same price as 16" tires and it would save the hassle of getting tires mounted and balanced every winter/spring.
Come on it’s a VW! Nothing’s that easy! (I’m a bit jaded since I started looking into fixing my A/C system and found that rather than having high and low pressure switches, my car has a single transducer that sends a square wave back to a control module, the frequency of which is based on pressure. This allows or stops the compressor from cycling based on the signal frequency. Meaning I can’t paperclip the pressure switch to check it. I would need an oscilloscope. :bloated: )
haha Thanks, yea I knew VWs were a pain. Especially after I was on tirerack or tire.com I cant remember which, and they said the replacement TPMS sensors for the new wheels were like $240.
Stupid gizmos on new cars, I can LOOK at the tire and tell if its low on air. :lol:
:lol: Yeah but they try to design cars for the dumbest of the dumb. Well, that and people want run-flat tires because flat tires are so common :cjerk: and you can’t have run-flats without TPM sensors. Well, you could but you’d be retarded.
