Oh dear.  I hope she’s ok.  

She will be when we can get her back in to have a cast put on. Blackpool Vic Hospital have real staffing issues currently. She's in a temporary boot and in agony

I recently had another puncture on my Run flats (that's 2 I've had in as many months. Excellent repairs and the TPMS still works fine.

The car went back in to the tyre place this morning for the sensor replacement (apologies Don as i couldn't get to Manchester for the pre diagnosis). After fitment they plugged in the laptop in order to register the new sensor. Their system said all good as it showed a green tick, but the car appears to have different ideas.

I now have this on screen? The fitter said that it may cancel out after maybe a few miles .... but nothing as yet

It does take a few miles so I’d keep going but I can’t remember what mine said on the dash while it was doing it.

Done about 15 miles now and no change

It takes ages to register the sensors Scott, I think they’ve exited too quick.  I seem to think it says “registration complete” then a few miles.

I'll keep going then Don. Not used the car much over the weekend so we'll see what happens by the end of this week. Strange why it takes so long though! You'd think it was a fairly speedy process.

You should be able to do it yourself.  You can register a replacement valve yourself or you can just add all four as a second set of wheels.  Have a read here.
