Hi,
Two of my TPMS sensors do not work and the local dealer wants $100 for each. I can get Dorman or Standard TPS sensors for less than half that on carparts.com.
Would these sensors work fine and sync with the other 2 OEM sensors and with the system? Which is the preferred brand for replacement TPMS sensors?
M45 TPMS sensors

You can get a set of 4 OEM ones on EBay dirt cheap. I just bought 4 for my new 20" wheels for like $50.

Thanks a ton! i've found a few! What does valve cores not included mean? Is that the pin like thing that tire shops put into the valve? Not having that isn't a great deal is it?

I think so, I just had mine installed and they had order them for $4.82/ea. Honestly, not a big deal.

Re: M45 TPMS sensors
I had mine installed by tire rack when I bought new tires and wheels from them. I believe they were about $50 each (installed) and Tire Rack mounted and balanced the tires free and shipped them to my local shop. After the new wheels were placed on the car, the TPMS had to be activated at the dealer but they worked just fine and continue to do so.
