Remove

1. Using a jack, raise vehicle and support with 

stands.

WARNING: Do not work on or under a 
vehicle supported only by a jack. Always 
support the vehicle on safety stands.

2. Remove 5 nuts securing road wheel, remove 

wheel.

CAUTION: Never use high pressure 
cleaning equipment on a wheel with a TPM 
sensor fitted.

3. Remove tyre from rim.

CAUTION: To avoid damage to TPM sensor, 
break tyre bead from rim 180 degrees from 
valve stem.

4. Remove valve from wheel and collect washer.
5. Carefully remove TPM sensor from rim.

CAUTION: If a tyre sealing fluid has been 
used the TPM sensor must be replaced. 

CAUTION: If sensor has been removed, the 
complete valve must be replaced.

Refit

1. Clean TPM sensor filter surface (on underside 

of sensor).

CAUTION: If the TPM sensor filter is dirty 
the sensor must be replaced.

CAUTION: Do not use compressed air to 
clean TPM sensors. Do not clean sensors 
with solvents or any cleaning agent of any 
source, use a clean dry cloth only.

2. Fit Torx bolt and adapter to TPM sensor, finger 

tighten bolt.

3. Carefully fit TPM sensor to rim, fit washer and 

valve, tighten valve to 3.5 Nm (2.6 lbf.ft). 

CAUTION: Do not exceed these torque 
figures as damage to sensor will occur if 
overtightened.

4. Insert brace supplied with valve into adapter.
5. Ensure sensor is pushed fully home to the rim 

and tighten Torx bolt to 3.5 Nm (2.6 lbf.ft). 

CAUTION: Do not exceed these torque 
figures as damage to sensor will occur if 
overtightened.

6. Remove brace from adapter.
7. Fit tyre and balance wheel.
8. Fit road wheel and tighten nuts to 140 Nm (103 

lbf.ft).

9. Remove stands and lower jack.

10. An initialisation process must be carried out 

after the following:

l

A tyre pressure has been adjusted

l

A TPM sensor has been replaced

l

A wheel has changed position, e.g. 
swapped axles or the spare fitted as a road 
wheel
