Severe operating conditions (road salt, mud, temperature conditions) can lead to premature failure of the VDO brand Repair Kit, wheel sensor (tyre pressure control system), and, as a rule, the problem does not arise with the electronic part of the sensor, but with its aluminum fitting. On most sensors, it can be replaced separately and extend the life of this part.

Tire pressure control system sensors do not work correctly and require repair or complete replacement using a repair kit in the following cases:

1. mechanical damage;
2. breakage of the nipple;
3. violation of the thread;
4. wear of sealing gum;

The usage of repair kit

To prevent these malfunctions in future, an appropriate repair kit is used. Timely repair of tire pressure control system sensors with a help of kit will help to maintain the correct operation of this unit in the car.

Low air pressure in tires increases fuel consumption and reduces vehicle stability. High-pressure levels increase the load on the body and suspension, accelerating wear. Uneven tread wear increases the vehicle's stopping distance.
