TPMS Sensor - Where to buy them for cheap?
Hello All!
I am looking to get a winter set up for the GLK. I found good tires and rims, but i am still looking for cheap TPMS sensors? What are you guys using? What about the ford sensors that i have seen mentioned on the forums? Where are you guys buying them?
Thanks!

TPMS
This was the cheapest I found for original equipment ones:

Don't get cheap ebay ones made in China - you get what you pay for so if they don't work right you saved nothing by buying inferior knock offs.

$89.95 for 4 new benz tpms sensors (includes batteries)
The guy said they need to be programmed to the car..huh? I thought since they are 433mhz that they would work automatically? some members on this board said there's nothing to do, car will detect them. I would like a confirmation on this.
Thanks

I think those are 433.92mhz. I'm looking for the 315mhz for an 04 S.
Which would be better the BERU RDE004 or SIEMENS/VDO?
Anyone have a good place to buy these? Seems like I can find the 433.92mhz for around 100 for a set whereas the 315mhz are 100 each?
Also, anyone have OEM part numbers?
Thanks.

Sorry to revive this old thread, but trying to find TPMS for some winter wheels for a 2013 GLK350 4Matic.
Anyone know the OEM part#?
Are there different parts depending on when the car was made? Seems like some sites have the TPMS a 433Mhz, and some as 315Mhz....

Looks like Schrader makes an replacement sensor also. Ordered...so we'll see how it works.

The Titan TPMS ones do not relay the actual tire pressures back to the computer system on the GLK. Therefore, it only tells you if they are inflated or not. It'll just read "TPMS active". I had this tested.
With that said, I had to return the Titan TPMS ones. The company Titan TPMS were fantastic about the whole thing and did refund my money, in addition to pay for new OEM sensors and the replacement labor. But it did cost me hassle and two trips to PepBoys.

I ended up getting OEM Schraders from ebay. They were $80 for 4. Unfortunately the stems were a little too short for the wheels that I had.

I ended up having to get a Schrader rebuild kit 20020ak (20020 20013) and using some of the parts to make them work. $20.
Works now. The Schrader valves transmit individual pressure to each sensor.

GLK350 Inexpensive TPMS Sensors - No Programming Required
I have just installed the SEINECA brand TPMS sensors (SKU: BBC009-4-SA-OLT) on my 2015 GLK, and I can confirm the vehicle recognized and learned the 4 new sensors within a few miles of driving, without any input from me whatsoever.
Amazon link below - $45 for set of 4

FWIW, ($80 for four from Amazon). The description (for when the link expires): "MORESENSOR Compact PRO Series 433MHz TPMS Tire Pressure Sensor 4-Pack | Preprogrammed for Select 850+ European/American Brand Models | Replacement for 56029398AA | Clamp-in | KX-S033-4"
I did a fair amount of research, and wanted some that were likely to last more than 5 years before requiring replacement, and that would auto-install. Add $60 at Discount Tire to install them and rebalance the tires (due to possible difference in the weight of the old and new sensors). They auto-configured, and have been working like a champ.
