I thought the tyre warning system on the 8P A3 was based on the difference in rotational speed of the wheels (as measured by the ABS sensors) and doesn't need any extra hardware.
Look at the option price on a new A3 - that wouldn't pay for the "full house" TPMS system... which is what you guys are discussing.
I'll give it a go after my RS4 button as seems a cool thing to have, from what I read its each wheel has sensor on valve, then in the wheel arch a sender etc then I guess link up to can & button on the dash, anything I missed in my quick browsing mode?
Ah quick look on that link shows its the wheel speed/abs version, urrrrmmm some reading to do now.
watch this space I guess.
It's sensors (one per wheel), receivers (one front and one rear), and a control module. Total cost well over £1000 - unless you can find the parts on eBay (but I've never seen them there).Maybe but it would maybe work on a retro no, after all its sensors & button & can
... given unlimited time and money ... and depending on how "modified" you want it to look.Nothings impossible in this world
You won't know that your airbag mod is OK until you have an accident and either the airbag works or you have a long chat with a plastic surgeon while he rebuilds your face....The mfsw flat bottomed & airbag worked even though I was told it wouldnt, so no harm looking at possibilities huh people.
Learning is all about doing research - not just blindly trying something.If it wont work then no harm done is it, afterall its only time & money & mine at that.
I'm curious about things so I like to satisfy my curiosity win or lose.
