    Valve stem extender issue on Freightliner/Accuride wheels, again!

    Thanks Stuart. What kind of tool? I have been thinking of developing some type of tool that could be used to attach to the TPMS cap and be able to unscrew it…

    Valve stem extender issue on Freightliner/Accuride wheels, again!

    Interesting… so do you have the integrated TPMS? And can you reach the inner valve?

    FYI On a recent trip a Valve stem on the tow failed

    I have been researching this as I have read that having metal valve stems is better for the sensors used by a tpms. How do metal valve stems work if the toad has a tpms on the vehicle?

    Question Dark coach cab makes TPMS display dim

    I don't mount my TPMS on the dash, it's low and right of the steering wheel. Initially I did and when I got the new TST color display they didn't have a good mount so I 3D printed one that velcro's to the dash near the key. Point is you don't need to be looking at your TPMS. It will alarm based...

    Problem 2022 Dutch Star High Tire Temperature

    My TPMS saga had a twist. July 7th when I parked at the Spartan repair facility, a “distracted” driver rear ended the RV at 40 mph. The team at Colton Truck and RV garage were awesome. The chassis damage was extensive. They finished the chassis repair two weeks ago. That was 1/3 the time the...

    Question Rettroband - are they worth it?

    If you are insulating that watching your tire pressures, having a TPMS and taking care of your tires you can avoid any issues with tire blow outs, I respectively disagree. I baby my tires in so many ways but still almost had a disaster when a bubble formed on the inside of my tire. I found...

    Several TPMS suppliers recommend using metal valve stems.

    Well folks I’ve sold my coach…

    Looking for a TPMS for Class A

    Part of my decision was based on my overall needs for tpms. I have 1 Motorohome. 2 toads, and 4 trailers. The trailers are towed by either of 3 vehicles, one of them being a 2021 Dodge Ram with factory tpms and ability to monitor trailer tires. That means I have 2 towing vehicles that can...

    11,000 mile mark

    ...myself a "Pro" instead of a "Rookie". Report on the DS at this time only minor issues, WIFI ranger failed, Newmar shipped me a new one, TPMS keeps losing com with the rears during travel, shower wasn't sealed correctly, we have a new wall (minor water damage) waiting for us at the dealer...

    Well folks I’ve sold my coach…

    ...leaving that for now. I’m trying to be prepared and organized so I can get it all done in two days. The list so far: Driver Controls: TPMS and manual Comfort Drive, what it does and doesn’t do, etc LBCU ops and manual Allison trans control panel and...

    Wireless TPMS Good or Bad

    I recently converted my jeep wrangler to metal valve stems compatible with the jeeps tpms sensor. This allowed me to connect the tpms without worry of damaging the rubber stem.

    Time to buy tires

    Regarding media inserted in the wheel to balance and TPMS sensors mounted in wheel on valve. You might want to check with the tire installer if the balancing media is compatible with valve mounted wheel sensors. It might beat them up depending on the materials involved. My VW used differential...

    confusion on psi on TT

    Hello! I have a new trailer and I bought a TPMS for our upcoming long trips. I got confused when i was installing my system on what my psi warning should be? The sidewalls says 65psi cold max. Is that what i should have my tires inflated to or should i not exceed 65psi? What should i put as...

    Problem 2022 Dutch Star High Tire Temperature

    I agree with Neemer and have no experience with OE TPMS but that display looks like its indicating too much braking on that axle to me.

    TPMS Issues - Gen 1 -- NHTSA Recall Campaign

    I would do both. Install an auxiliary TPMS for peace of mind, and file a NHTSA complaint for satisfaction. Just like the DEF debacle. I learned the system and equipped myself accordingly to keep from being stranded (never again!) and avoid a tow, but filed the complaint because the situation is...
