Hi Argyll Andy
Can I assume these will just want fitting to the wheels and after a certain amount of miles the cars system will detect the new sensors ie no need to have them coded to the vehicle with a TPMS scanner?

As long as the sensors are the right frequency (the ebay man will know which), you just fit them. That's it! The receiver will recognise the signal from the TPMS valve transmitters. When I changed my last set, the TPMS system didn't even ask to be reset, but yours probably will as you have run without them. Just reset the system and the car will do the rest.Validwarlord wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2023 10:10 am Hi Argyll Andy

No scanning, no coding, nothing needed.
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

Yes, get them installed, go to the section in iDrive relating to tyre pressure and iirc there’s an option for resetting/initialising monitoring system, drive a few miles and it’ll register itselfValidwarlord wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2023 10:10 am Hi Argyll Andy

Hi Argyll Andy
No idrive option but just incase I have found an old friend who owns his own tyre business and to boot he has a TPMS scanner so going to get him to fit the new sensors and go from there.
Thanks for your help guys as always great to ask questions and get a solution.

Sorry Dave, I’m not familiar with the non iDrive option. Between your mate and the guy selling on eBay hopefully you’ll get sorted outValidwarlord wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2023 12:05 pm Hi Argyll Andy

On speaking with the E Bay seller who comes recommended he is telling me the car will self learn once they have been fitted so fingers crossed will certainly keep you all posted on how it goes.
Thanks All

Afternoon All
A quick update got the TPMS sensors fitted today and within a 100 yards they matched with the car so no scanning required so now no more alarm bongs when I turn on the ignition " Happy days"
Thanks as always for the input from you guys very helpful.
