TPMS Sensor 4pcs 433MHz Tire Pressure Monitor Sensors - Pre-programmed

Our review of the TPMS Sensor 4pcs kit finds it best for drivers who want a direct, cost-effective replacement set that arrives pre-programmed for specific GM vehicles and only needs a TPMS scan tool to activate. The bottom line: these sensors are a practical option for owners of Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet or GMC models listed in the fitment who want OEM-style function without factory pricing; they deliver reliable pressure reporting and long battery life claims, but expect to use a compatible TPMS scan tool and allow a little hands-on setup time.

Key Features

• Pre-programmed sensor: Each sensor arrives pre-programmed for make, model and year, so activation is usually just a matter of using a TPMS scan tool to wake and register the unit.
• Wide vehicle compatibility: Designed to replace OE numbers 13598771, 13512347 and 13516165, these sensors fit many Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC models for straightforward swaps.
• 433MHz frequency: Uses the standard 433MHz TPMS band for compatible GM systems, offering expected communication with the vehicle receiver when properly activated.
• Durable battery and chip: Built with a CR2032 battery and a 900kpa chip, the battery is rated to last multiple years and the electronics tolerate a wide temperature range.
• Simple activation steps: The included activation procedure outlines selecting Check Sensor, choosing brand/model/year, selecting tire position and pushing the trigger button to display sensor info on the tool screen.
• One year warranty: Manufacturer support and a one year warranty provide added reassurance for first-time installers and DIY repairs.

Who It's For

This kit is well suited to DIY mechanics and independent shops servicing compatible Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC vehicles where OE part numbers 13598771, 13512347 or 13516165 are specified. It is particularly useful for owners who want a ready-to-activate replacement that avoids full dealer programming sessions and who already have or can borrow a TPMS scan tool.

It is less appropriate for drivers without access to a TPMS scan tool or for those who prefer dealer plug-and-play installation without any activation steps. Also, if absolute certainty about battery life beyond the stated range is critical, some customers noted concerns and may prefer sensors from long-established OEM channels.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Pre-programmed for make/model/year so activation is typically fast with a scan tool.

• Comes with a one year warranty and accessible customer support.

Cons

• Programming ability had mixed reports from customers; a TPMS scan tool and some patience may be required.
• Some users expressed concern about long term battery life in a few cases, so absolute longevity can vary.
