Are you looking for TPMS Reset for your vehicle?
Repair
As per UK Government’s mandates, automobiles manufactured after 2014 must come with a TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System).
This system consists of sensors that help monitor the air pressure of car tyres and provide information on the existing level. So, if the tyre pressure falls below 25% of its recommended level, the TPMS sensor alerts you by blinking the warning light on the dashboard.
However, there might be instances when your car’s TPMS sensors do not function optimally.
- For this reason, you should also regularly check your car’s tyre pressure and not depend on the TPMS alone.
- In such cases, you should get proper TPMS servicing Chatham Kent and replacement solutions from a professional workshop like us - Sturla Car Repairs .

What Our Customers Say
Excellent service. Had a sudden car emergency which proved to be a false alarm but they checked it (didn’t have to wait very long even though they were clearly very busy) and didn’t even charge me as the car was all ok. Highly recommended.
