As the title suggests, I'm after the appropriate sensors for my '14 Cayenne Diesel. I have a second set of wheels coming for more winter and overlanding.

A check at Pelican Parts shows that the OEM sensors are $100+/each. Ooof!

I see discussion about other TPMS sensors here and here.

Through one of those threads, I see that TMPS.com has sensors that should fit the '14, but I can't be sure. http://www.tpms.com/2014_Porsche_Cay...PMS_s/6340.htm

I'm curious if anyone has ordered and had success with the more affordable TPMS sensors? If so, where did you get them? Which ones did you order?

$71 each at tire rack

Right on. Thanks. THat's a bit better than the $100+ I'm seeing.

I also see at TPMS.com that I can get a set for $140+/-.

Is there any difference between the unit listed at Tire Rack vs that at TPMS.com? It's tough to tell...

No cutting out the middle man. I highly recommend shop TPMS.

Bobcat Sig

You bought from TPMS.com for your Cayenne? No issues with their sensors?

goin2drt

No but I am actually friends with the owner and get all my TPMS from him. He is one of the largest distributors of TPMS in the country.

He, they, know more about TPMS than anyone. You will not be disappointed.

Bobcat Sig

Good to know. Thanks. I sent them an email as I still can't seem to get a straight answer.

Call them directly. Ask for Brad. Tell him Todd told you to call. He will get you the exact correct part. Hope that helps. Cheers.

Bobcat Sig

Very much so. Thank you!

goin2drt

Just remembered he is at SEMA so may not answer right away.

Bobcat Sig

No worries. He was able to respond right away and I have a set on order. Once installed, I'll report back on how and if they work.

Newegg

Thanks for the tip on Tpms.com. Called them yesterday and they were really helpful. Not sure who I talked to. Order a set and they shipped the same day. They clearly know what they are talking about.

TPMS is covered with the extended diesel warranty, getting one of ours replaced Friday.
