E350 CDI 265
Activate active TPMS on w212

Hi, I´m owner of w212 E350 CDI 195Kw 2012 model. My system has a passive tpms without valve sensor.
I´d know if there is any way to activate this system on dashboard.
I can buy the oem sensors cheap in aliexpress and install those in the wheels.

Thanks for all

You would need additional hardware to pick up the TPMS signals which is not installed in your car and may be very expensive to install. You could call your dealer and ask if this conversion has ever been accomplished before.

What exactly passive TPMS is?
I own 2008 MB what is first year of TPMS on US market and it does warning, but will not show the values on dashboard.
Yet iCarsoft scanner reads not only pressure, but also temperatures.

Passive is Euro. It works off of the wheel rotation through the wheel speed sensors not TPMS.
and here I thought you knew it all. LOL
