TPMS part #
Does anybody know -- or have access to looking up -- the TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system) sensors for a 2007 ML 350? I need the #s for the sensors and the valve stem, if available.
Thanks in advance!

Run Flat Indicator system
Operates off the ABS sensors that compute wheel rotation and sound the alarm when any one wheel is consistently different than the rest.
Per my manual, p. 348, "While the vehicle is being driven, the Run Flat Indicator monitors the set tire inflation pressure by evalutaing each wheel's rotational speed. This allows the system to detect a significant loss of pressure in a tire. If a wheels rotaional speed changes due to falling inflation pressure, you will see a corresponding warning message in the Multifuntion Display. ..."
I'd be interested to see what the 2007 manuals say on this--anyone?

Your correct GregW when I said 164 chassis I should have correctly stated that I meant all 07 and up vehicles.
The reason for the distinction between the two is because Canada only requires ABS style monitoring while in the US, all model years 2007 and up require, by Federal law, to have a physical TPMS sensor.

Here's the supplier. Schrader Group was awarded with the contract starting with MY 2007 according to this press release on their site:

@jerseytuffguy:
They seem to offer a retrofit kit according to the info on their site.
