New tire pressure sensor for BMW vehicles equipped with the TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitor System) with direct parameter monitoring from physical sensors in each wheel - RDC (Reifen Druck Control). This is an analogue designed to replace the original sensor with part number 36106881890. It operates at a frequency of 433 MHz.
Sensor pairing is performed fully automatically during a test drive at a speed of at least 40 km/h for up to 20 minutes. To activate the new sensor learning mode, it is necessary to reset the RDC system via the vehicle's onboard computer menu.
All BMW vehicles manufactured after March 2014 have the standard RDC direct tire pressure monitoring function. If the onboard computer menu only displays the basic RPA (Reifen Pannen Anzeige) system – a primitive control based on comparing wheel speeds via DSC stabilization system sensors – the RDC function can be activated as an additional option at a specialized auto service center. After successful activation and sensor installation, the menu will show detailed information displaying the temperature and exact pressure in each wheel in real time.
For BMW vehicles produced before March 2014, in addition to installing pressure sensors in each wheel, additional equipment is required: mounting signal receiver antennas and subsequent software coding of the system.
Important: We sell the sensors. Installation, activation, and coding must be performed at specialized service centers.
