Is that yellow exclamation mark symbol illuminated on your dashboard? A generic tyre pressure warning light can be frustrating and worrying. At auto care hub, we go beyond simple air fills. We provide Advanced TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System) Error Resolution for every make and model, from family hatchbacks to high-performance SUVs and commercial vans.

Located on Bideford Avenue, our technicians are equipped with state-of-the-art diagnostic tools to identify, repair, or replace faulty sensors instantly.

Why is My TPMS Light On?

The TPMS light isn’t just a suggestion; it’s a critical safety warning. While the most common cause is low tyre pressure due to a puncture or natural air loss, a persistent light often indicates a system fault:

• Dead Sensor Battery: TPMS sensors have internal batteries that typically last 5–7 years. When they die, the entire sensor needs replacing.

• Sensor Corrosion or Damage: Road salts and impacts can damage the sensor stem or electronics.

• Loss of Signal: The vehicle’s ECU (computer) has lost communication with the wheel sensor.

Our Advanced Service: More Than Just a “Reset”

Many drivers try to reset the light via the dashboard menu, only for it to return days later. This happens when the root cause isn’t addressed. At Kwik Fit Perivale, we offer a comprehensive solution:

1. Digital Diagnostics (OBDII Scan) We plug into your car’s onboard computer to read specific fault codes. This tells us exactly which wheel is causing the issue and whether it is a pressure problem or a sensor failure.

2. Sensor Replacement & Programming We stock universal and direct-fit sensors compatible with 99% of vehicles on UK roads.

• Cloning Technology: We can often “clone” your old sensor’s ID to the new one. This means your car recognizes the new sensor immediately without complex reprogramming procedures.

• Valve Stem Service: We replace rubber seals, cores, and caps to prevent future leaks.

3. System Relearn & Calibration After installation, we ensure your vehicle’s ECU correctly communicates with all four wheels, turning that dashboard light off for good.

Why TPMS Matters for Your MOT

In the UK, a functioning TPMS is mandatory for all passenger cars registered after January 1st, 2012.

Important: If your TPMS warning light is illuminated during an MOT test, your vehicle will result in an immediate FAIL.
