Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Enhance Tire Monitoring with Denso 550-0103 TPMS Sensor - A Reliable and Accurate Solution by Shane Grosland

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Looks like a good combination OEM

Installed 2/16/18 on my 2007 Camry Hybrid. After another aftermarket replacement brand died after only 5 years and the other 3 original Toyota sensors still worked I chose Denso as I understand it is OEM for Toyota. I have techstream on my laptop and registered the new sensor before installing it, as well as all other good sensors. It was accepted on the first try. I counted the wheel, removed the tire from the bead, pulled out the old sensor, put in the new Denso sensor, re-inflated and installed the tire, checked the Techstream for correct pressure readings, and I was back in business. The only thing I warn. Be careful when tightening the "nut". It's such a low torque that I think my torque wrench didn't "register" when I hit setpoint. The outer flats on the nut started slipping out of my socket so I called it a good one. The air pressure will still hold it in place, so just don't twist it. I will update when he dies (hopefully in many years) and if I still own the car!

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Poorly thought out
