Yes, i think these part Numbers are from me.
I think you can use these parts for your 2012 model.
I used them for my old 2014 model and it worked great.

Hi to all. Still trying to find out which is the best way to go ahead with this retrofit.
I have to report that I have retrofit a NBT unit witn 8.8inch screen. The manufacture year of the donors car was on 2016-02-05 (my car is an F20 116i 2013 model)

I have been told that after 2014 NBT units recognize the signal from 4 tpms sensors and I don't need rdc antenna in order to work. Just 4 sensors and coding

Can someone confirm or not?

larry_bml · 05-11-2017, 06:33 AM

NBT doesn't recognize by itself the rdc sensors, DSC has this function on newer cars. On your 2013 , I'm 90% sure that you still need rdc ecu and wheels sensors.

gup · 05-11-2017, 06:48 AM

That is what I know also. But they insist that a "new" NBT is all I need. What DSC stands for please?

larry_bml · 05-11-2017, 07:17 AM

Belive me that NBT has nothing to do with tmps sensors. I have EVO on my f30 2013, and I had to buy tmps module.

What part numbers do I need to look for?

For my early 2014 F30

I have and I cannot find any sensors with the old part numbers to buy.

All I can find to buy it lots of 4 x valves of part number: 6855539

For these valves do you know which receiver part number I need to find/buy?

I think you can buy the same parts like me back then.
You're from UK?
Then you can buy these sensors 36106856227:

The M4 2016 euro Version should have this as standard.
Look at the valves on the tires.
Are they made from rubber or metal?

I think this retrofit should work for your car too.

jpacc · 06-10-2017, 05:03 PM

I will order parts and keep you posted

THE_AVIATOR · 06-11-2017, 03:20 PM

jpacc My car is F30 2016 and it worked! I only needed the sensors "based on my VIN in ETK for the wheels I have" then some coding. a 2-4 KM drive and voila

As pre-2014 sensors are widely available it does not make sense to me as this "upgrade" really gives you the same results you had before, unless I am missing something

Some cars don't have TPMS, just RPA (Flat Tyre Monitoring). So this is actually a retrofit.

My in the idrive ha RPA
